The heat may have been turned up under David Fizdale’s seat, but the Knicks coach is feeling good about the support he is getting from up top.
In the four games since president Steve Mills and general manager Scott Perry seemingly put Fizdale on notice with their impromptu postgame press conference, the Knicks are 2-2. Mills and Perry’s rare public comments — suggested by owner James Dolan in a mid-game meeting while the Knicks were getting blown out by the Cavaliers — made clear their displeasure with the team’s effort and consistency through the first 10 games of the season.
