Several reports now indicate that the New York Knicks are expected to come up short in their pursuit of Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd as their replacement for Tom Thibodeau. ESPN reported Wednesday morning that Dallas gave a "firm rejection" to the Knicks when they requested permission to talk to Kidd.

Jenkins, who was the head coach in Memphis from 2019-25, compiled a 250-214 (.539) record during that time and led the club to three playoff appearances — ’24/25 would have been a fourth, but he was fired with nine games left in the regular season.

The Knicks made that decision after they lost to the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference finals, their longest playoff run in 25 years. The next Knicks coach, whoever it is, will be expected to help take the team further, especially after the front office went all-in last offseason with trades for Mikal Bridges and Karl-Anthony Towns.

Tom Thibodeau was, by far, the best New York Knicks coach of the 21st century. He led the team to the playoffs in four of his five years on the job. The Knicks made the playoffs just four times in the 19 seasons before he was hired.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver might prefer that teams don't make blockbuster trades or other league-altering types of news during the NBA Finals, while the Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers compete for a championship.
