Pablo Priogni on his escape from Knicks hell

While Knicks president Phil Jackson must wait until mid-May, Pablo Prigioni feels as if he already won the lottery with his late February trade to Houston, which he admits now he requested.

Prigioni plans to be a coach when he retires, which could come after these playoffs. So his experience playing in Jackson’s triangle was “interesting,’’ he said, even if not his cup of tea.

Now the 38-year-old Argentine point guard is back running a Rockets offense he knows and prefers, saying it is similar to what Mike Woodson employed two seasons ago during the Knicks’ 54-28 campaign.
