The New York Knicks had an unlikely hero to thank for their NBA Cup victory on Friday. Landry Shamet had a career-high 36 points off the bench to help propel the Knicks, missing two key starters, past the Miami Heat. Head coach Mike Brown revealed after the win that Shamet's performance was in-line with what he had seen from him over the last decade.
When New York made their coaching change in the offseason, it was inevitable that Brown would be watching plenty of the team's game film from the past season. Coaching candidates need to bring ideas to interviews that intrigue general managers and team governors.
