The New York Knicks fired coach Tom Thibodeau on Tuesday, a league source confirmed.

Thibodeau, 67, led the Knicks to the Eastern Conference finals this season, their furthest playoff run since 1999-2000, but the team saw its best chance at reaching the finals end in a disappointing six-game defeat at the hands of the Indiana Pacers. In five seasons in New York, he went 226-174 in the regular season, leading the team to the playoffs four times.
