When the Knicks parted ways with Tom Thibodeau, it seemed risky not to have a replacement in place. And they have reportedly made their first move as the Knicks are expected to formally request permission to speak to Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd.

The Knicks are reportedly interested in tabbing Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd as the successor to Tom Thibodeau’s throne at Madison Square Garden, according to longtime NBA insider Marc Stein and ESPN’s Shams Charania.

According to a report from longtime NBA reporter Gery Woelfel, New York is preparing to make a "tsunami-type offer" to trade for Antetokounmpo. In addition, the Knicks may be trying to bring in a favorite of the superstar forward to be their new head coach.
