NEW YORK — A report published on December 1, 2025, states that head coach Mike Brown has “no other choice” but to employ a coaching method widely criticized when New York Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau used it.
The report does not detail the specific tactic Brown intends to replicate, only noting that it is the same approach that drew heavy scrutiny during Thibodeau’s tenure with the Knicks. Brown’s decision, according to the story, comes amid circumstances that leave him little alternative.
Although Thibodeau’s strategy has been faulted by analysts and fans in the past, Brown is reportedly prepared to accept similar criticism as he moves forward.
