New York Knicks: Phil Jackson teaching guards the triangle offense

There are 17 games left in the 2016-17 NBA season. New York Knicks President Phil Jackson has decided he wants to get involved. Most people would say he’s overstepping.

Most people would say Jackson overstepped when he was reportedly teaching New York’s guards his infamous triangle offense.

If you’re looking for more evidence that the Knicks are committed to running the triangle: team president Phil Jackson was teaching some Knicks guards the offense for about a half hour before an informal team workout yesterday, per league sources. It seems clear that Jackson is intent on running the triangle, as sources with knowledge of the workout told ESPN that he was hands on in instructing the offense with Knicks guards before the workout.
