Knicks clearing cap before July would definitely raise the level of concern for me.Ya, I think this has me a bit more on edge than I was previously. I still give us at least a 50% shot at retaining him (which was lower than before, and I could probably be convinced it’s a bit higher than that). NY takes a big chunk of the remaining %, but there are still other dark horses that take from NY’s chances. I really think Thibs being NY’s coach is quite possibly a negative. JB had a controlling type coach in RC and I do wonder if he wants to go back to that.
