After leading the New York Knicks to their first Eastern Conference finals appearance in 25 years, Tom Thibodeau is out. The Knicks fired Thibodeau on Tuesday, less than a week after the team's Game 6 loss to the Indiana Pacers, the team announced.

In five seasons with the Knicks, Thibodeau posted a 226-174 record and led New York to the playoffs in four of those seasons.

The New York Knicks fired coach Tom Thibodeau just days after their first trip to the Eastern Conference finals in 25 years ended, a source told The Associated Press.
