Knicks Hire Two-Time Coach of Year Mike Brown

News summary

The New York Knicks have hired Mike Brown as their head coach, aiming to capitalize on their recent championship window and end a title drought dating back to 1973. Brown brings a wealth of experience, including two NBA Coach of the Year awards and a strong playoff record with teams like the Cleveland Cavaliers, Los Angeles Lakers, and Sacramento Kings, whom he led to the playoffs for the first time since 2006. He has been part of four NBA championship teams as an assistant coach with the San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors, contributing to their 2003, 2017, 2018, and 2022 titles. Knicks president Leon Rose emphasized Brown’s championship pedigree and his ability to develop players, qualities seen as crucial for the team’s ambitions following last season's Eastern Conference finals appearance. Despite the Knicks’ recent success under former coach Tom Thibodeau, they opted for Brown’s leadership to push further toward a championship. Brown's appointment marks a strategic move to build on the team's momentum and maximize its potential in the coming seasons.
