Team president Phil Jackson and franchise player Carmelo Anthony were supposed to work together to save the New York Knicks. Instead, two men who will one day share space in the Hall of Fame have become embroiled in a bitter feud.
As rumors swirl that Anthony could soon be traded, one of Jackson’s most prominent ex-teammates is weighing in on the matter at hand.
When Jackson and the Knicks won the 1973 NBA championship, Earl Monroe taught a masterclass on how to check one’s ego and dispel misconceptions. Thus, if anyone can weigh in on the current feud, it’s the superstar scorer who checked his ego in pursuit of a championship.
