NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — RJ Barrett was asked to explain something that would have been unusual to a 10-year veteran, let alone someone who had played 21 NBA games.
Was it strange to have a coach run practice, only to fire him after it ended?
“I mean, I have no idea. I just got here,” Barrett said. “I don’t know how these things work.”
Welcome to life with the New York Knicks, rookie.

It’s nothing new when they change coaches, but the firing of David Fizdale was a head-scratcher even for the Knicks.
