Knicks News: ‘Strong desire’ to keep Mike Miller on staff, if not head coach

At this point, it seems all but a done deal that the New York Knicks will hire a new head coach in the coming weeks, with Tom Thibodeau the leading candidate per multiple reports. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean interim coach Mike Miller will be kicked out on the street.

According to Ian Begley of SNY, there are people within the Knicks organization who have a strong desire to keep Mike Miller on the coaching staff, even if he doesn’t retain his head coach status.

Miller took over for David Fizdale in December.
