In his latest piece for the New York Daily News, Mitch Lawrence says there are rumors around the Bulls’ camp that Tom Thibodeau might have a deal in place to become the head coach of the Knicks next season.

Thibodeau was an assistant coach in New York from 1996-2001 and is represented by CAA, Knicks owner James Dolan’s favorite agency. Lawrence is quick to note that Thibodeau is under contract through the 2016/17 season, and a regular season transition is extremely unlikely because there would be a major tampering case that might prevent Thibodeau from returning to New York at all. Doc Rivers proved last summer that coaches under contract can be shipped to another squad for the right price, and after the season ends, Thibodeau will be a viable candidate to land a job leading the Knicks.

Lawrence hears from league sources that Thibodeau was “kept in the dark” about certain details during the development of the Luol Deng trade, namely when Deng was being shipped and where he was heading. Since Deng was one of Thibodeau’s favorite players, withholding these details surely rubbed him the wrong way. Plus, we heard last week that Thibodeau wasn’t thrilled with the prospect of rebuilding, and the Deng deal certainly indicates the Bulls are interested in changing the core of their team. It’s possible that the club might want to reshape itself and form a new identity that doesn’t include Thibodeau.
Tom Thibodeau responded on Saturday to a report by the New York Daily News that stated there is word the head coach could already have an agreement to become the Knicks' next coach.

"That stuff is ridiculous," Thibodeau said. "First I was being traded. … I couldn't care less about that stuff. I love the fighting spirit of this team. That's all I'm thinking about.''

Thibodeau is in the first season of a four-year contract extension with the Chicago Bulls.

CP was ball hawk in New Orleans, so, u not a liar

But, I'm reason that he's overrated and useless like he didn't take the franchise to another level

But, well see a week or two from now
I'm not so sure he's overrated, I'd just like to see him adjust his game to what produces the best results.
That Bucks greek rookie made a couple plays tonight I ain't seen since Anthony Randolphs rookie year.
I was about to say he never puts up stats though but he did good that game. I'm guessing his impact is something you have to see and doesn't necessarily show up on the stat sheet? I haven't watched much of him.
