Mike D'Antoni has agreed to coach the New York Knicks, bringing his entertaining offensive style from the Phoenix Suns to a team coming off one of the worst seasons in franchise history.
The Knicks released a statement Saturday night saying they had agreed in principle with D'Antoni and that a news conference would be held once the contract had been completed.

I wish him well. He inherits the Isiah Thomas mess. |

I don't wish him well. The northeast has enough championship caliber teams in professional sports right now.

That works out fine in the West, but the Eastern conference is defense oriented. It will be interesting to see what sort of compromises he makes. | |

Someone who wants 6 mil a year over...oh...probably half that.
Chicago is notorious for underpaying coaches. That's why they were stuck with Skiles.
Money is the only reason to go to New York. It's like the Atlanta Falcons head coach job - dead before it starts.
