Metta World Peace didn’t even make it through his first full season with the Knicks, but with a new regime running things now, apparently the team is willing to consider giving him another shot.

Carmelo Anthony was supposed to make his decision on his future early this week, but no word yet. So while we anxiously wait for his announcement, Knicks new coach Derek Fisher is giving a few details on what he told Melo — and we’re hearing that Kevin Durant stepped in and gave Melo his opinion on Fisher. Will any of this help sway Carmelo to stay with the Knicks?! It’s now just a waiting game. Hit the jump for details…
With Phil Jackson as the President the Knicks will have plenty of eyes on them , expecting them to win, especially if Carmelo Anthony stays. Anthony certainly can’t do it by himself and though Amar’e Stoudemire helped bring him here, he hasn’t been much of a second option. Stoudemire wants to return to his previous form however and expects to return as an All-Star under new head coach Derek Fisher’s system aka Phil Jackson’s system.
Now it’s allllll coming together. Yes, the Zen Master had a plan (you didn’t doubt him did you?!) & it looks like with the hiring of Derek Fisher as head coach of the Knicks it’s starting to fall into place. As a Knicks fan, I would love for this to happen. Check it out….
Yesterday the sports world learned that the Knicks reached an agreement with Derek Fisher to become the team’s next coach. Well everyone in the organization has been pretty quite about it, but reporters caught Phil Jackson last night and asked him about Fisher — he had just two words in response. So how do you feel Knick fans?!?! A press conference for the announcement is scheduled for later today. Hit the jump for details…
Soooooo it looks like the Knicks have a new head coach! I’m still trying to figure out how I feel about this. Check it out & we will keep you updated…
