During the playoff run, the Knicks’ coaching staff, led by Tom Thibodeau, faced scrutiny regarding potential roster changes after a first-round loss to the Pistons or second-round defeat to the Celtics, despite the team being healthy throughout the season. Jalen Brunson expressed confidence in Thibodeau, while there were concerns about team dynamics after on-court arguments, yet the team grew closer through their postseason experiences. As they head into the offseason, key players like Anunoby, Brunson, and Hart are signed through 2028, with contract decisions looming for others like Bridges.
