Tom Thibodeau was fired by the New York Knicks on Tuesday, just days after the franchise wrapped up its most successful season in over 20 years. Thibodeau led the Knicks to 51 wins and an Eastern Conference finals appearance this year, but the run came to an end on Saturday with New York falling to the Indiana Pacers in six games. Now the organization must find a new head coach to capitalize on its talented roster immediately.
The news came as a massive shock to fans and analysts alike. For Magic Johnson, it was an absolute stunner, as the Hall of Fame point guard tweeted, "WOW WOW WOW" from his X account in the immediate wake of the dismissal. Johnson also had one big question in response to the decision.
