The New York Knicks made a major move following their Eastern Conference Finals loss to the Indiana Pacers, firing head coach Tom Thibodeau. Since that move, rumors have begun flying with both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jason Kidd at the center of them.

The New York Knicks fired head coach Tom Thibodeau despite a run to the Eastern Conference Finals and back-to-back 50-win seasons for the first time in 30 years. It was a head-scratching move for many people, but apparently, a few top players weren't pleased with the coaching direction of the team.

The New York Knicks are conducting active due diligence on Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd among other head coaching candidates in their search to replace Tom Thibodeau, sources told ESPN.
