Knicks in Trouble… Who Ya Gonna Call? Whoopi!

In our newest segment of Knickscast.com, the Question of the Week, we are asking who would you pick to be Isiah Thomas’ replacement? Well here is my pick… Whoopi Goldberg. The woman is such a legend. She whipped the church choir into shape in Sister Act and Sister Act 2 (I liked Part II better). And as my partner in prime Carl Nasman correctly pointed out, in the movie Eddie (1996), Whoopi wins a halftime contest to become coach of the Knicks for a day and ends up bringing them back to glory! She is the perfect candidate. Take a look at the movie poster from back in the day…

But what puts me over the edge is her inspiring performance in Sister Act II. One of my all-time favorites. She doesn’t even need a resume. The video below proves why she should be the next New York Knicks coach. Lauryn Hill also sends chills with her solo. One of Carl’s favorites. Pardon the video appearance. I am trying to figure out how to embed the videos and center them up.
