The Education Of RJ Barrett Continues
Ahhhhh.......seeeya! RJ Barrett already has his second NBA coach as Dave Fizdale, left, has been fired.Bless RJ Barrett, who got his childhood wish and was drafted by the New York Knicks. The poor guy is probably now figuring out that playing for that franchise comes with a cost.
Latest installment: a new coach as the Knicks have fired Dave Fizdale.
You could pick any coach - Gregg Popovich, Brad Stevens, Doc Rivers, Steve Kerr - the Knicks are a mess and there’s no easy way out.
We don’t know how good a coach Dick Fizdale actually is but we do know that anyone who coaches the Knicks would struggle. We even include Mike Krzyzewski in that.
