Conflicting report claims Jeff Hornacek didn’t shove Joakim Noah

Stefan Bondy and Frank Isola of the New York Daily News reported on Sunday that New York Knicks’ head coach Jeff Hornacek shoved center Joakim Noah during their altercation during a practice session in Golden State just last month.

Now Marc Berman of the NY Post has his own story and it doesn’t include Hornacek shoving Noah.

The next day at practice, according to eyewitnesses, they engaged in a verbal shouting match with Noah being restrained.

Hornacek never pushed Noah, according to multiple sources. In fact, indications are the Knicks mulled issuing Noah a suspension for his actions but decided against it.
