According to a report, the Knicks will have to shift their attention to other candidates after three NBA teams denied New York access to their coaches.

Van Gundy has plenty of coaching experience. After being Riley’s assistant in the 90s, Van Gundy led the Knicks’ bench from 1995 to 2002 before spending four seasons with the Rockets. He just got back into coaching, and plenty of people have brought him up, but it doesn’t seem to have any legs.

One of the top priorities for the New York Knicks is a new head coach following the firing of Tom Thibodeau. The Knicks have drawn interest from head coaches employed by other organizations.
