Now that Isaiah has finally been shown the door, the next coaching canidate for the New York Knicks seems to be Marc Jackson. That scenario seemed to inch closer with Scott Skiles taking the Milwaukee Bucks job yesterday.
Scott Skiles verbally has accepted an offer from the Bucks, erasing him as a Knicks coaching candidate, according to a league source. Skiles’ imminent hiring strengthens front-runner Mark Jackson’s candidacy, which received another boost over the weekend with Jeff Van Gundy’s endorsement.
For a franchise that just discarded one of it’s greatest all-time players in Patrick Ewing, it would be good to see a former Knick from the relevant days on the Knicks bench. All I’m saying is just sign Jax already! If you are the Knicks what do you have to lose in getting a rookie coach.
