Before we get to the meat of the coaching discussion, let’s get one thing out of the way: Jeff Hornacek still has a job coaching the New York Knicks. You probably know this, as much as you may wish you didn’t.
If you root for the team, you’re likely in one of two camps:
- “I guess it wouldn’t be the worst thing if Hornacek stayed,” or
- “Please pass the cyanide if he’s still here on opening night 2018.”
Even those in the former camp have to admit that Hornacek seems to decide on his nightly rotations through the use of a dartboard, a blindfold and a bottle of vodka.
