Phil Jackson Tweets Nonsense About Gods Having Heartburn After Cavs Crush Knicks
Phil Jackson’s tenure in New York has not been very successful so far. Without Hall of Famers and a championship-ready roster, Jackson’s book recommendations and triangle offense haven’t been the answer the New York Knicks had hoped for. On Sunday, LeBron James and a bunch of guys who used to play for the Knicks rolled into Madison Square Garden and spanked the home team, 101-83.
Apparently, Phil “Zen Master” Jackson did not appreciate the way in which one of the teams played. That team was probably the New York Knicks. This begs the question – how many times can Phil Jackson throw in the towel in one season? Phil has already admitted that his “experiment has fallen flat on its face.” Now he’s accusing a team starting Lou Amundson, Jason Smith, Lance Thomas, Jose Calderon and Langston Galloway of not having “it.” Well, if that group doesn’t have “it” then I don’t know who does.
Yup, that’s a thing that an adult tweeted. SMH indeed. Meanwhile, five players Phil Jackson traded or dropped (Tyson Chandler, Pablo Prigioni, Amar’e Stoudemire, Iman Shumpert and J.R. Smith) will be in the playoffs. At least Jackson was able to sign marquee free agent Carmelo Anthony last summer.
