Phil Jackson didn’t talk to the media all season, so it was no surprise that he made a lot of news when he addressed reporters on Friday.
The Knicks’ president said a lot during a press conference that lasted just under an hour and here’s what mattered the most:
On Carmelo Anthony
I won’t go as far as others who think Jackson blamed all the Knicks’ losing on Anthony, but Phil certainly indicated Melo was part of the problem. Jackson was right when he said the Knicks haven’t won with Anthony here the last three years and that both sides would be better off with him on another team.
