**Official '11 NYK LOCKOUT thread*** lockout over

Is Mike Woodson really a defensive specialist? Honest question.

Was that Hawks team good defensively? I don't remember.
 
the last 2 years he had with the hawks they were 10th best at defense and thats definitely far from where we're at
 
in another article it talks about how he was fired for getting owned by orlando and not making any adjustment to their approach in defending the magic in the series despite getting crapped on. so hes no lawerence frank imo but is definitely a welcome addition to at least try getting credibility on that end.
 
All that matter in signing Woodson.

It is not a bad piece to have on the resume for a Knicks coaching applicant.Like Phil Jackson, Mike Woodson also played for Red Holzman during the legendary coach's second stint in 1980-81. "We had a pretty good year too," Woodson told The Post yesterday.
 
^ same... i don't see how frank would be better anyway... its not like hes any more accomplished than woodson really

Dropped on Wednesday at NTNY.. luckily snagged a pair. Look sold out now.. but these are nice in person. We Def need a team Knicks summit if we have a season this year.
 
Woodson, meh, I'll take it over what we have.
And I still need to grab a pair of those Knicks Penny 1s.
 
Realistically he isn't a bad hire.

We won't pull in a top tier defensive specialist so I'll take what we can get.
 
What's good yall,
I'm starting a clothing called Black Market Wares, and I come bearing a gift for my fellow Knicks fans.

Our first tee drops this Wednesday. Msg me or email me at [email protected] if you're in NY and interested.

[h1]Knicks Name Mike Woodson Assistant Coach[/h1]
NBA Coaching Veteran Joins Mike D'Antoni's Staff

NEW YORK, August 29, 2011 - The New York Knickerbockers announced today that Mike Woodson has joined Head Coach Mike D'Antoni's staff as an assistant coach. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.

"I was extremely encouraged after meeting with Mike that he would be a great addition to our coaching staff and we are pleased to welcome him back to New York," D'Antoni said. "Mike brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our team and we are confident that he will help us as we continue towards our goal of building a championship team."

Woodson joins the Knickerbockers after serving as the head coach of the Atlanta Hawks for six seasons from 2004-2010, where he guided the Hawks to the playoffs in each of his last three seasons. In six seasons in Atlanta, Woodson amassed a 209-286 (.419) coaching record in 492 games while posting an 11-18 record in 29 playoff games. Prior to joining the Hawks, Woodson served as an assistant coach with the Milwaukee Bucks (1996-99), Cleveland Cavaliers (1999-2001), Philadelphia 76ers (2001-03) and the 2003-04 NBA Champion Detroit Pistons.

"I consider Mike D'Antoni to be one of the top coaches in our game and I am thankful for this opportunity," Woodson said. "I'm excited to re-join this great franchise where my professional career started and will work to build off of the success they had here last season."

Woodson was drafted by New York with the 12th overall selection in the 1980 NBA Draft out of Indiana University and averaged 14.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 786 career games over 11 NBA seasons with New York, New Jersey, Kansas City-Sacramento, L.A. Clippers, Houston and Cleveland. In his rookie season with New York, Woodson averaged 4.7 points in 81 games under the legendary Red Holzman.
