Karl-Anthony Towns shares wordless Tom Thibodeau post after coach’s stunning Knicks firing
NY Post
Karl-Anthony Towns had an apparent wordless reaction to Tuesday’s bombshell news of Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau’s firing.
Taking to his Instagram Stories, Towns re-shared a Knicks tribute he posted on his page earlier in the week, but kept Tuesday’s focus on a smiling photo of himself and the 67-year-old Thibodeau.
“This city. These fans. Thank you,” the 7-foot center penned in the post’s caption Monday, two days after the Knicks’ Eastern Conference finals ouster to the Pacers. “The best is yet to come.”
Change was next to come for Towns, 29, and the Knicks after the team stunningly announced Tuesday they were relieving Thibodeau of his coaching duties after five seasons at the helm.
“Our organization is singularly focused on winning a championship for our fans. This pursuit led us to the difficult decision to inform Tom Thibodeau that we’ve decided to move in another direction,” Knicks president Leon Rose said in a statement.
“We can’t thank Tom enough for pouring his heart and soul into each and every day of being the New York Knicks head coach.”
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.
