Definitely not unexpected considering the 1-year contract he received. First name I thought of to take his place: Ron Wilson. I think the team needs to get some of its offensive flair back.

they not only ended up in the playoffs but within one game of going on to the conference final ...and really that new york series could have ended a lot differently it's not like they were lucky to see it go 7...

Speaking of Wilson, I can't remember the last high-profile fired coach to go this long without saying anything to the media. He's been a complete ghost since he was let go. I'm sure he's enjoying spending time with his family and such, but I can't even imagine how many press interviews he's had to decline/ignore.
