The New York Knicks had no interest to the restart of the NBA season, according to Marc Berman of the New York Post.
The reason is that the Knicks want to focus completely on their search for a new head coach, with Tom Thibodeau, Jeff Van Gundy and Mike Woodson being among the candidates.
“The eight teams who are not playing need parameters and guidelines for offseason work,” one league official told The Post. The hope is to get clarity at some point soon so these teams can start organizing and planning their offseasons,” Berman reports.
