Mike D’Antoni has resigned as coach of the New York Knicks, ending his turbulent four-season stay with the franchise.

D’Antoni and Knicks owner James Dolan agreed on Wednesday for D’Antoni to end his stay with the Knicks, a source said. “It was a mutual decision to no longer coach the Knicks … conflicting visions of the club’s future,” the source said.

“He clearly felt it was best for the organization if he were not to continue as coach of the team. He did offer to stay,” Dolan said at a brief news conference before the Knicks’ game against the Portland Trail Blazers Wednesday night. “After a long discussion, we did agree it was best for the organization to have new voice moving forward.”

D’Antoni had clashed with Carmelo Anthony after the trade brought the All-Star forward to the Knicks a year ago, and he could never get Anthony to buy into his system.

The Knicks have lost six consecutive games to nearly drop out of the Eastern Conference playoff race.

Assistant Mike Woodson, who formerly coached the Atlanta Hawks, will take over as the interim coach.

The Knicks enjoyed a brief revival this season after D’Antoni moved Jeremy Lin into the rotation and made him the starting point guard. The Knicks won seven consecutive games from Feb. 4-15, a stretch that almost entirely coincided with Anthony’s absence from the lineup because of a groin injury.

The Knicks have gone just 2-8 since Anthony’s return, losing any of the momentum they gained while he was sidelined. While fans at Madison Square Garden have taken to recently booing Anthony, he told reporters Wednesday he doesn’t want to be traded.

“Dolan is blaming the coach,” said a source with knowledge of the Knicks’ locker-room dynamics. “Tyson Chandler, Baron Davis, A’mare Stoudemire – guys who came to play for Mike – or that system – are pissed. Lin isn’t happy either.”

【NBA快訊】北京時(shí)間3月15日消息，據(jù)美國(guó)知名籃球記者報(bào)道，德安東尼正式辭去尼克斯主帥一職。德安東尼是NBA聯(lián)盟享有盛名的進(jìn)攻大師。2008年夏天，德安東尼與尼克斯簽約，正式成為大蘋果城的主帥。在經(jīng)過兩個(gè)賽季的臥薪嘗膽之后，尼克斯于上賽季開始嶄露頭角，他們簽下了小斯，交易來了安東尼，并且重返季后賽。

本賽季初尼克斯開局不佳，1月份遭遇一波6連敗，德安東尼的帥位就不再穩(wěn)固。所幸此后林書豪突然爆發(fā)，在小斯和安東尼缺陣的情況下，幫助球隊(duì)完成了一波7連勝，也算是暫時(shí)保住了德安東尼的帥位。但在小斯、安東尼陸續(xù)回歸之后，尼克斯的表現(xiàn)再次出現(xiàn)反復(fù)，近期已經(jīng)遭遇6連敗，18勝24負(fù)的成績(jī)與賽季初的期望相去甚遠(yuǎn)。

伴隨著連敗，球隊(duì)也發(fā)出了各種不和諧的聲音。在這種情況下，德安東尼在當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間周三與老板多蘭會(huì)面，雙方長(zhǎng)談之后，達(dá)成共識(shí)，一致同意結(jié)束3年多來的合作關(guān)系。消息人士透露。德安東尼辭職之后，助理教練伍德森將行使主教練的職責(zé)，他曾經(jīng)執(zhí)教老鷹6個(gè)賽季。

林書豪正是靠著德安東尼的慧眼識(shí)英才臨危受命才一戰(zhàn)成名，如今當(dāng)初的伯樂下課，林書豪的在隊(duì)中地位可能不保，未來的前途命運(yùn)也未卜。
