EducatedBet..New York New York!

Mike D’Antoni has accepted an offer to coach the New York Knicks, according to media reports.

The former Phoenix Suns coach, who was also sought by the Chicago Bulls, has accepted a four-year, $24 million deal to take over the Knicks, according to reports by Sports Illustrated and The Boston Globe, both citing a league source. Two sources close to D’Antoni confirmed to ESPN.com that the coach has informed Knicks president Donnie Walsh that he’s accepting New York’s lucrative offer.

The Knicks did not immediately confirm that D’Antoni is New York-bound. Suns owner Robert Sarver wouldn’t confirm that D’Antoni had taken the New York job, but told The Associated Press, “Mike called me this morning to thank me, so I figured this was up.” ESPN.com has been reporting since Thursday that D’Antoni was the Knicks’ No. 1 coaching target and Walsh was preparing a significant offer. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith reported Saturday morning that the contract, which will make D’Antoni the league’s third-highest-paid coach based on annual salary, had been officially extended.

Well well well I think that one of the first places that told this move would be done was EDUCATEDBET.COM…I am just saying I think that I said he would be a Knick, why I dont know. They are a mess but hey its all about the money…right? Right, thats why he is in the big city because the Knicks suck…so good luck Mike! O and ps a little side note…I also think that EDUCATEDBET..com also said that the Pistons should keep Billiups out of game 4 and if you are watching the game now you can see he is in street clothes…NO BIG DEAL!
