After the Knicks were eliminated, four guesses, one person is the core, Thibodeau was dismissed, the guy touched the ceiling

The Knicks still failed to turn the game in Game 6 and eventually lost the game. In fact, in terms of this game, it was expected, after all, this is the situation of the team now. It can only be said that the Pacers' more advanced playing style has made the Knicks defeated. The Knicks are officially out. We might as well make a few guesses and predict what will happen. After the Knicks were eliminated, he guessed that he had one person as the core, and Thibodeau was dismissed and the guy touched the ceiling.

The first conjecture is to set up Towns as the core. In fact, in this year's playoffs, especially in higher-level matches like the Eastern Conference Finals, Towns should be the core of tactical skills. You can see the Knicks winning games in the Eastern Conference Finals. They are all centered on Towns, who are the tactical core, so they feel very comfortable. If the Knicks still have ideas next, Towns can be the core, after all, the team with Brunson as the core has reached the ceiling.

The second guess, Brunson touched the ceiling. It’s not that Brunson is not a bad idea, but understanding the Eastern Conference Finals has completely exposed his shortcomings to everyone. It is not denied that Brunson plays hard, but his hardware height cannot be compensated. You can see that in the Eastern Conference Finals, Brunson scored inefficiently, but also dragged the team down. After the ball was in his hands, it was really difficult to return it. In general, the player Brunson has also touched the ceiling and will not improve any further.

The third conjecture, Thibodeau was dismissed. To a certain extent, this round of competition is actually a competition between two concepts. On one side is the Pacers' long rotation, and on the other side is the Knicks' short rotation. It is obvious that in the current league, the Pacers' long rotation can survive better. What we want to say is that Thibodeau's coaching philosophy is actually lagging behind the times. If Thibodeau is dismissed, don't be surprised.

The fourth conjecture, Tucker and others left the team. To put it bluntly, the Knicks' current lineup is quite bloated, with too many high-paying players, and not many role players who can really use it. In this case, the lineup needs to be changed. Players like Tucker and Payne are very likely to leave the team, after all, they have no value anymore. So, this year's playoffs, the Knicks will spend some effort to strengthen them.

In general, the Knicks also achieved success this year, but this achievement is not the highest. Considering that these players are in their peak period, if you don’t want to waste these people’s peak period, you still need to continue operating during the offseason. For the Knicks, they have also seen that as long as they can make it to the playoffs, they will make a fortune. You can wait and see what will happen this year's offseason
