The Knicks continue to have no idea who their next coach is, as they were denied talking to Jason Kidd among many others. Kidd could try to force his way out, but he’ll probably get more money and an extension from Dallas instead.

The New York Knicks are currently in a state of disarray following the firing of head coach Tom Thibodeau. The team's coaching search has been a public relations nightmare, with reports of denials from multiple coaching candidates, including Ime Udoka, Chris Finch, and Jason Kidd. This chaotic process has led to speculation that owner James Dolan is heavily intervening in basketball operations, bypassing the expertise of Leon Rose and Worldwide Wes. The lack of a clear plan and the desperate optics of their search are causing concern among fans and analysts, who fear the organization is regressing to its past reputation as a league laughingstock, despite having a talented roster.

In a candid conversation with BT & Sal, Metta World Peace, formerly Ron Artest, passionately expressed his strong desire to become the next head coach of the New York Knicks. Highlighting his deep connection to New York basketball and his experience coaching a successful Division II women's team, Metta articulated a cerebral approach to the game, emphasizing defensive strategies and a focus on winning. He also openly addressed his past challenges, including his unpredictable behavior and issues with alcohol, conveying a sense of personal growth and accountability. Despite past rejections from coaching opportunities, he remains confident in his ability to lead an NBA team, particularly the Knicks, and aims to change perceptions through success and dedication.

Today, we're diving deep into what truly matters in sports: the individual achievement or the team championship. Do you get more excited by a player chasing a historic home run record or a team battling for a World Series title? Sal argues that personal accolades, even franchise records, don't move him unless they're tied to team success, citing the Mets' history of futility and star players leaving. BT, however, loves the pursuit of records, seeing them as fascinating benchmarks that transcend team allegiance, regardless of whether a championship is on the line. It's a classic sports fan's dilemma, and we want to know where you stand!

Sal Licata and NBA guest Frank Isola discussed the New York Knicks' controversial decision to fire head coach Tom Thibodeau, with Isola contending it was an emotional move by owner James Dolan, disregarding Thibodeau's recent success in leading the team to the conference finals. They debated the player-coach dynamic, the role of Jalen Brunson's father as an assistant, and potential coaching replacements like Jeff Van Gundy and Jason Kidd, while Isola cautioned against hiring inexperienced candidates given the Knicks' elevated expectations. Isola also defended the players' post-loss partying, emphasizing the end of a long season and the difference in media scrutiny compared to past eras.

The Knicks fired Thibs and Gio is trying to find a positive in it, but after thinking about it all day, he hates it. Boomer said you never know what’s going on behind the scenes. Boomer thinks it’s a ‘shiv spot’. He feels disappointed as a Knicks fan as he felt like they finally had a legit head coach. He also assumes they are going to take a step back next season. Boomer wants someone at the organization to get in front of the media and explain why they did this. Gio is very interested in this ‘snakes in the grass’ situation with the Knicks firing Thibs. They must have somebody in mind to coach the team if they did this.

The Mets just took 3 of 4 from the mighty Dodgers, and BT & Sal believe it’s time to admit: this team is for real. With a healthier pitching staff, Juan Soto still not fully clicking, and big arms yet to return, the Mets might finally be on equal footing with L.A. Is this the best Mets team in years?

Gio was in the news yesterday for calling Karl-Anthony Towns a ‘loser’. Carl Banks went after Gio for the take. He wasn’t talking about KAT the individual, he was referring to KAT the Knicks player in the playoffs. Gio said Banks is not very good at media and that was evident yesterday. We talked about KAT’s performance in the playoffs and why he was brought in. He had soft moments in big games where they should have gotten more out of him.
