The New York Knicks' decision to hire Mike Brown wasn't the wrong one, but it was a bit interesting to fire Tom Thibodeau for him. Regardless of the optics behind it, it was the decision the Knicks made, and all the front office, players, and fan base can hope for is that things work out.

The man tasked with getting the Knicks over the hump and back into the Finals for the first time since 1999 is Mike Brown. Brown is taking over for Tom Thibodeau, who was fired shortly after the Knicks' loss to the Pacers in the conference finals.
