Carmelo Anthony has right ideas for Knicks next coach - too bad Phil Jackson doesn't
Let's face it: Carmelo Anthony is better equipped to handle a coaching search than Knicks president Phil Jackson.
While Jackson narrowed his list of potential candidates to “my friends who run the triangle,” Anthony would have opened the search to include — how’s this for thinking outside the box? — the best man for the job.
During a promotional tour on Thursday for Gillette Clinical Clear Gel, Anthony confirmed what the Daily News reported two weeks ago: his preferred choice to become the next head coach of the Knicks was Tom Thibodeau.
Anthony even took it one step further, telling ESPN that if offered the job, “I’m pretty sure (Thibodeau) wanted to come.”
