With three seasons in the Big Apple under his belt, New York Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau has changed his team’s culture.
After winning Coach of the Year in his first season as head coach, the emphasis on a young, defensive-minded core has led to a continuity in the Eastern Conference that no other team possesses.
Entering his fourth season as head coach, Thibodeau exudes enthusiasm as he looks to lead New York back to the postseason. A longtime Thibodeau aide recently shared some insight into the coach’s mindset, saying, “I’ve never heard him more excited to work with the group he has with the Knicks this year.”
