GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- The New York Knicks are committed to running the triangle. This has been apparent during the last few weeks. The latest piece of supporting evidence came Thursday, when team president Phil Jackson spent time working with the Knicks’ guards on some triangle spacing and reads.
“He had our guards out there just showing them a couple things that are kind of probably further along in the triangle process than we’re at now,” coach Jeff Hornacek said Friday of Jackson, confirming an ESPN report.
Some around the NBA would probably raise their eyebrows at the idea of a team president coaching players on the court.
