Knicks’ playoff run disproving this Tom Thibodeau label
NY Post
The reputation is one thing. The reality is another.
The Knicks don’t care about the former. They’re benefitting from the latter.
A narrative that coach Tom Thibodeau is stubborn, stuck in his ways with a “my way or the highway” mentality and hesitant to make needed adjustments has hovered over him throughout his career. But his current players see the opposite.
“I think once you have a label, it’s hard to shed that label,” Josh Hart said after practice Monday. “This whole, I don’t want to call it a run because it’s two series, but those two series [against the Pistons and Celtics], he showed that he’s willing to adapt, he’s willing to change, he’s willing to do different things than he’s used to. Obviously, that’s a willingness on his end, the trust and belief in his players.
“Everyone gave him a label and they just ran with that label for the last 10, 15 years. But I think the last two series showed his ability to adapt and change when necessary.”
How specifically has Thibodeau changed or adapted?
The Knicks have time to think. Giannis Antetokounmpo isn’t going anywhere just yet.
