Stephen A. Smith is excited about what he s seeing from the Knicks. (2:28)
One of the many criticisms about New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau was that he would be unable to adapt his eat-breathe-sleep basketball ways to a new wave of young players. But after being fired by the Minnesota Timberwolves in January 2019, Thibodeau is at the start of a third basketball act that many thought wasn t possible.
New York wasn t expected to win much in Thibodeau s first season, but as was the case in his first year with the Chicago Bulls in 2010-11, the team has exceeded expectations.

This is what Thibs meant by next man up.

Sam Smith:
Sam: The passing and movement were very encouraging against the Wizards. Wizardly for the Bulls, as it were. Though it s something we ve heard asked for before. If not often seen. Give Donovan some credit that the message has been getting through so quickly without much training camp. Finally having all those veterans not on the injury list is helping. Though I doubt anyone on the team would know the name of anyone on the 70 Knicks and would be surprised Clyde Frazier the broadcaster was a player. OK, maybe Thad and Templ Smithe.
