MacMahon: Mike Brown will be under great pressure because the Knicks will fail if they don t make it to the finals

July 4th, July Today, famous reporter Tim MacMahon talked about the Knicks hiring Mike Brown as head coach in the show "GetUp".

MacMahon said: "Mike Brown is undoubtedly an accomplished coach. This recruitment is a good operation, but what he took over is a situation where it is not a success if he doesn't make it to the finals. This is the expectation of the team's management and boss. For them, not entering the finals is a failure."

Then MacMahon said: "Even if Tom Thibodeau leads the team to the Eastern Conference Finals, he still cannot retain the coach position, which says everything. The current situation Yes: The Knicks team has talent, and the misfortune of some other teams, especially the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers, has made the Eastern Conference more open. He does have a chance now. Of course, this is accompanied by huge pressure. But Mike Brown is not the one who will be influenced by pressure. He has coached LeBron in Cleveland, where the spotlight is very strong; he has coached in Los Angeles. He is a very confident, firm coach with the ability to face the scrutiny of the outside world. "
