REPORT: Knicks’ Mike Brown hire awaiting James Dolan’s approval

Nearly a month after firing Tom Thibodeau, the New York Knicks have finally—or so it looks—found a replacement of their liking.

That’d be former Sacramento Kings coach Mike Brown, who has emerged as the frontrunner following a second interview with the organization on Tuesday.

Of course, these are the James Dolan Knicks, so you know what must happen before we can write about the official announcement: franchise overlord Dolan must approve the move and will have the power to block the hiring altogether.

Oh, and just in case, Dolan had a little something to do with sending Thibs packing—in short, Dolan didn’t just approve the move, he initiated it.
