Knicks’ Game 7 pressure even greater with no guarantee of return
NY Post
They call it the best two words in sports, but “Game 7” sometimes can be classified as “last best chance.”
Just ask Tom Thibodeau.
Thirteen years ago, he guided the Bulls to the conference finals with the youngest MVP in NBA history and a ceiling seemingly higher than the Sears Tower.
They were destined for a post-Jordan golden era, until Derrick Rose’s knee buckled against the Sixers. LeBron James also formed a super-team in South Beach.
Stuff happens.
Thibodeau never got to the conference finals again. Sunday’s Game 7 against the Pacers will be his closest.
