Major Update in New York Knicks’ Head Coaching Search Emerges originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The New York Knicks have to be pretty used to rejection by now. The team has attempted to contact several NBA teams to interview their coaches and have been rejected time and time again.

It has been reported that the Dallas Mavericks denied a request to interview Jason Kidd, the Minnesota Timberwolves said no to Chris Finch, the Houston Rockets did the same with Ime Udoka, the Atlanta Hawks rejected a Quin Snyder interview, and the Chicago Bulls also shut down the idea of Billy Donovan.

Several reports now indicate that the New York Knicks are expected to come up short in their pursuit of Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd as their replacement for Tom Thibodeau. ESPN reported Wednesday morning that Dallas gave a "firm rejection" to the Knicks when they requested permission to talk to Kidd.

If the team's real plan was to poach another team's coach, that shows a level of organizational incompetence that Barkley is right to roast them for having. However, we'll give the Knicks the benefit of the doubt until we see who their next head coach is.

The Knicks’ coaching search after firing Tom Thibodeau last week isn’t off to a hot start.

The Knicks have backed themselves into a corner between the firing of Tom Thibodeau and this upcoming hire. Here's what we know.

The New York Knicks were denied permission to speak with coaches Jason Kidd of Dallas, Ime Udoka of Houston and Chris Finch of Minnesota in a slow start to find Tom Thibodeau’s replacement.
