Knicks dismissed Tom Thibodeau on the use of Jalen Brunson, schematic gaps in the NBA qualifiers, compared to

Despite the driving of New York Knicks to the Eastern conference final for the first time in 25 yearsTom Thibodeau came out as coach. The decision seemed to be hasty, but according to Ramona Shelburne of ESPN, the taking was removed from the problems of use with Jalen Brunson and Thibodeau to make schematic adjustments during the NBA qualifiers.

Brunson’s career numbers have reached another level in each statistical category under Thibodeau. The Star Guard has collected an average of 26 points per match and 7.3 assists this season. More than 18 games in playoffs, Brunson recorded an average of 37.8 minutes per game, an increase compared to his counting of the regular season of 35.4.

Thibodeau is known to count strongly on his five departure with the help of key reserves and has never used a deep bench. The Knicks had three players in the most played minutes of the NBA this season, notably Mikal Bridges and Josh Hart, who arrived at numbers 1 and 3, respectively, because the two were on average more than 37 minutes per game.

Brunson has missed matches this season with ankle and calf injuries, suggesting that he cannot resist if Thibodeau’s obsession to survive him continues. During the conference final, New York seemed to move away from Pick-And-Roll with the cities of Brunson and Karl-Anthony; The centering pairing at center has only helped five goals on the ground.

This was enough for the front office to be in motion, reports Shelburne, despite Brunson’s public support in Thibodeau::

In February, the Pick-And-Roll de Brunson and Towns was the second most efficient combination of Pick-And-Roll in the NBA, with an average of 1.22 points per direct game. But after February, it dropped to 0.88 points per direct choice when the opponents started to put a wing on Brunson and to switch a center on the inconsistent shot. Thibodeau has never offered an effective counter – often forcing BrunSon to bail out the team at the end of the goods.

Knicks need their next coach To more effectively place the BRUSSON-TOWNS combination offensively. With the defensive cap, OG Anunoby returns, among other things, to obtain more time from full programming should be more beneficial than playing regulars as many minutes.

Previously, the players had spoken of the strong points of the deep list of New York.

“We have a lot of good guys in this team that can take the minutes, which helps the defense, helps the offensive, helps the tired bodies to be there and abandon all these points,” said Bridges before a match against the Blazers in March. “It helps us keep fresh bodies there.”
