So long Don, Hello Lenny

Knicks fire Chaney, hire Wilkens



By CHRIS SHERIDAN AP Basketball Writer

Don Chaney and his two top assistant coaches were fired by the New York Knicks, and Lenny Wilkens was hired as the team's new head coach Wednesday, according to ousted assistant Brendan Malone.
"They fired Don, myself and Lon Kruger," Malone said as he left Madison Square Garden two hours before the Knicks' game against the Orlando Magic. Malone said Wilkens, the NBA leader in career coaching victories, would be the new coach.

The team called a news conference for team president Isiah Thomas to make an announcement.

It was the latest in a series of major changes made by Thomas, who took over for fired team president Scott Layden late last month.
