In an appearance on CBS Sports Radio’s “Brown and Scoop” podcast, Vecsey said a Rambis hire would send a clear message that the Knicks no longer have the nine-time All-Star in their plans.
“That’s the belief,” Vecsey said. “The truth is Melo likes Rambis. I know that for a fact. He thinks he’s a good guy, but he doesn’t think he’s the coach they need to go further than they are right now. He’s not a good coach.
