David Fizdale has agreed to a deal to become the New York Knicks coach, league sources tell ESPN.
5:42 PM · May 3, 2018

I think that's actually a very solid hiring for NYK.

Definitely a solid hire for the Knicks. Not a smart move by Fizdale, though. I figure Milwaukee or Phoenix are the best open situations right now. Either would be much better than working for Dolan and the Knicks.

Phoenix have already agreed to hire the Utah assistant. First Euro head coach ever.

Agreed about Milwaukee though. Anywhere but New York

Eh Knicks seem like a pretty attractive spot. They have an all-star player, a lottery pick, and their young lottery PG.

Plus the pay typically is WAY better than what the Suns will do.

Why does anyone think this is a good hire? What is it about Fizdale that would get anyone even slightly excited? Bron Bron likes him?

Bad hire. Fizdale is garbage. He doesn't even know how to pronounce the word "data" correctly which is sad

As far as I know, he's an Israeli-American. Played for Princeton, born in Boston and grew up in Framingham. But he's definitely Euro influenced.

I was talking purely European born

Becky Hammon plans to interview for the Bucks.

That would be cool if she can get the job. Better than their current head coach, who got ousted in 7 games by the Celtics  ;D

First Euro HC and first woman HC in one offseason would be pretty amazing

True. But I'd much rather live in NYC. Plus the expectations are so low

there night be some sort of connection between hammon and the bucks. she interviewed last year there for the GM position, but did not become a finalist.

popovich thinks very highly of her, so i think it is only a matter of when, not if, she becomes an nba head coach.
