Derek Fisher hired to be the next Knicks’ head coach

However, I’m here to tell you the secrets of the triangle offense.

That’s right, it’s not even real. Did you know there are triangles between three players on the court at any time? And did you know every bad team in history has used triangles in their offenses? Let’s go to the tape.

Derek Fisher will accept the New York Knicks’ head coaching job, according to Bleacher Report’s Howard Beck. A press conference could be held as soon as Tuesday, according to Frank Isola of the New York Daily News.

Fisher will receive a five-year deal for $25 million, according to Yahoo! Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski. That’s the same contract that Steve Kerr received to coach the Golden State Warriors. Kerr was team president Phil Jackson’s top choice to coach the club, but chose the Warriors instead.

When Fisher’s season ended as the Thunder were bounced from the Western Conference Finals, he wrapped his season with an emotional postgame media meeting and the next day followed that up with another reflection on his career. All signs pointed to Fisher being done as a player.

Jackson has discussed other head coaching candidates. Former Lakers forward Rick Fox opened up about his discussions with Jackson and says it’s in the new Knicks president’s court. At this point, it appears Fox and others are backup plans or potential assistant coaches for a new staff.
