Tom Thibodeau often is categorized as a defense-minded coach, but he pushed back on that label after his Knicks’ win over the Celtics at the Garden.
“I’m very biased to winning. Oftentimes, everybody is pigeonholed into something. You’re a defensive guy. You’re an offensive guy. You’re a player-development guy. You’re this. You’re that, whatever it is.
“So they expected you to be able to coach offense, coach defense, player development, game-plan, scout, evaluate personnel. And that’s the way I approach it.” “I think having a good understanding of defense also helps you offensively,” Thibodeau said. “And it gives you an idea of matchups and how to attack certain schemes. So, I think all that stuff helps and then having good players, that helps a lot.”
