Tom Thibodeau says he is still “hurt” by the New York Knicks’ decision to fire him, according to reporting shared by Yahoo Sports and the Post. In comments referenced by both outlets, Thibodeau acknowledges the personal impact of the move, even as he expresses that he is happy for the players. The outlets describe his reaction as a mixture of feelings: lingering disappointment about how the situation ended for him personally, alongside a continued focus on the team’s athletes and their ongoing roles. While the reports center on Thibodeau’s mindset rather than newly disclosed details of the organization’s decision-making, they agree on the core message of his public remarks. Both accounts present him as reflecting on the firing with ongoing emotion, rather than viewing it as fully resolved. No additional, outlet-specific claims about other circumstances around the termination are included in the provided summaries, and both sources emphasize his stated feelings and support for the players.
