Derek Fisher and Gloria Govan attend the LA premiere of "Meet the Blacks."

Gloria Govan isn’t the reason Phil Jackson fired Derek Fisher from the Knicks. At least she hopes not.

“I don’t think so. I don’t think so at all,” she said Tuesday at the red carpet premiere of “Meet the Blacks,” before she mumbled jokingly: “I mean, I hope not, better not be.”

Speaking exclusively to HipHollywood, Fisher’s squeeze said it’s her impression the Knicks simply made a basketball business decision, and it had nothing to do with the controversy surrounding their courtship.
