Phil Jackson does not care. He'll say whatever. It's fun, and kinda fascinating. Jackson's inscrutable comments and his office's bizarre leaks totally baffled reporters (and us!) during the draft and free agency. His conversations with Charley Rosen -- published serially months after they took place -- are a whole other creature. The latest, from just after the trade deadline, went up this week.
It's rich. Jackson returns fire at Jerry Krause and Kobe Bryant (again, 5 months after they initiated), explains some tweets, and offers earnest, often critical thoughts on guys the Knicks had, still have, wanted, have acquired since, and missed on.
