根據記者Shams Charania報導指出，尼克在近日嘗試挖角獨行俠總教練Jason Kidd並向獨行俠提出了面試Kidd的申請，但被獨行俠拒絕。而尼克先前也曾想挖角火箭總教練Ime Udoka與灰狼總教練Chris Finch，但都遭到原球隊拒絕提供面試機會。

尼克本賽季於東區決賽不敵溜馬，而後續尼克也開除了總教練Tom Thibodeau。後續尼克在聘請新任總教練、甚至在現有調整陣容的各項操作，勢必會受到多方注意。

The New York Knicks requested permission Wednesday morning to speak to Mavericks coach Jason Kidd – and Dallas gave a firm rejection, sources tell ESPN. Knicks have been denied now on Kidd, Minnesota's Chris Finch and Houston's Ime Udoka.
