He ain't even got color commentary experience.

More experience in the Triangle than Kerr

That is true. But does he have coaching in him. I'm sure Phil knows who might make a splash in coaching based on his interactions with his players.

He is a natural born leader. Kobe and Durant speak very highly of him. Kobe's favorite teammate. Pretty sure he's already talked about coaching when he hangs it up

Durant speaks highly of Scott Brooks and wants Westbrook to keep gunning. Why couldn't Fisher coach himself to have better shot selection. Maybe his weakness as a player makes him a great coach?

I don't understand

Durant lacks credibility because his stamp of approval is suspect and Fisher was not a floor leader or a good player. Sure he made some big shots but overall he is an highly overrated player. Sure he knows how to play the triangle but does he know how to coach it. Is he familiar with analytics, drawing up plays, and etc?

I'm pretty sure Phil Jackson didn't know anything either when he was winning championships with the Knicks 40yrs ago not as a great player but as a garbage man/enforcer/instigator. Same for Riley

Time to bring in Charles Oakley, Rick Mahorn, Bill Lambeer, and Antonio Davis. Bill has coaching experience.

Sure the names in Phil's coaching tree aren't sexy but I maintain that it does'nt matter who he names as coach as long as its someone with no previous ties. Someone he can mold like Riley did with Spoeltra. Then surrond the guy with veteran coaches like Cleamons, Rambis and Cartwright

JVG's a sensible man. Barring a significant blow to the head, there's no way he'll coach the Knicks. I could have seen him going to GS if the offered him the farm but the Knicks, no.

I just hope Phil doesn't give in to the pressure from the media and fans and hire Mark Jackson. It's Walsh hiring Dantoni all over again

I know he qualifies as a retread, but I hope they consider Sloan for the job. Hasnt bounced from team to team, Sloan has been to the finals and was a former player as well. Would make Nets games more interesting with DWill there. Not a Phil guy but that is not necessarily a bad thing.

I'd like JVG to be our coach, but now Phil is here it doesn't make sense- we'd just have constant media articles saying that they were at war with each other.

1) It was a starphuch
2) Walsh went against everything he believed in while at Indiana to try to recreate the Phoenix Suns

For once the Knicks from top to bottom need to be on the same page. Like San Antonio and Miami

Which is why you can be pretty sure he and his championship winning back went and sat on the bench for the Albany Patroons for a few years. Can we stop with the "he played, so that makes him a great coaching candidate" logic? It's stupid and there's more and better examples of it not working than it working.

That's exactly what I said. You don't have to be a great player to be a great coach
