Phil Jackson makes a truly bizarre Stephen Curry comparison

Knicks president Phil Jackson has struck again.

In his first tweet since his bizarre missive on the difference between transactional and transformative leadership, Jackson issued a tweet Sunday comparing Stephen Curry to the former point guard Chris Jackson, who later changed to a Muslim name, Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf.

Curry is coming off an NBA championship and MVP Award and Saturday night had a historic game in notching 46 points and hitting a 38-foot, preposterous game-winning 3-pointer against OKC that drew breathless tweets from NBA players.

Curry appears a landslide candidate to win a second straight MVP Award as he leads the 53-5 Warriors to an historic season.
