The New York Knicks fired coach Derek Fisher on Monday after a 23-31 start to his second season, according to ESPN.

Kurt Rambis will serve as interim coach for the Knicks, who haven’t won a title since the 1972-73 season.

The Knicks went 17-65 in Fisher’s first season after he was hired by team president Phil Jackson to turn around the struggling New York franchise.

When Jackson coached the Lakers, Fisher was a point guard on the team that won multiple championships.
