As the New York Knicks search for a new head coach, Metta World Peace wishes his name was in consideration.
Metta World Peace, who New York basketball fans first met as Ron Artest, has never been shy in expressing his desire to coach the New York Knicks someday. While he doesn’t want to talk about taking someone else’s job, as the front office considers a long list of candidates for the position, World Peace thinks he would make a good hire.
“Listen, I don’t want anybody’s job,” World Peace said on the Battle for LA Podcast with Tomer Azarly and Ryan Ward.
