On May 21, Knicks coach Thibodeau was interviewed by the media and the team is currently preparing for the Eastern Conference Finals with the Pacers.

When asked if he would communicate with Reggie Miller before every game in the Eastern Conference Finals, Tom Thibodeau asked back, "Who? I only communicate with our players."

After a follow-up question, he continued, "I respect him very much and what he has achieved in his career. When I coached in Boston, I tried to get him to join our coaching staff, but failed. He was unable to overcome the obstacles to leaving Indiana, and I understood that. When asked if he was concerned about former players Randle and Divinchenzo reaching the Western Conference Finals with the Timberwolves, Thibodeau said: "I care about these players unless they are enemies of us. I hope they succeed, they have had a significant impact on our team." The Knicks' first game with the Pacers will be held at 8 a.m. on May 22, and the Knicks lost to the Pacers 3-4 when the two teams played in the Eastern Conference semi-finals last year.
