Phil Jackson's ego will destroy the Knicks prospects in getting stars to come here. Phil thinks it's about him. If Michael Jordan was not on the bulls Jackson gets no ring in Chicago. He would not have made it to LA
I laugh at some of the guys who think we are going to draft our way to a championship. Phil is way over his head as a GM

Draft picks are very important. Nobody is saying we will use our whole roster on homegrown talent to win but I feel its the best way to go. We tried the other way for 17 years and it never worked. Truthfully if you look at Golden State most of their top players(before Durant wen there) were drafted and they won

Did they win a championship? I'm telling you Melo never bad mouth Phil. But Phil is acting like a bully and chasing the stars away. One thing you must realize. Melo is very well like and popular among the star players in this league and Phil is shooting himself in the foot.

So you are mad because Phil was "mean" to melo. Anyone who knows Phil knows that he is famous for mind games with his players and other players. I'm not saying it has always worked but that's what he does. This isn't little league so if Melo was that bothered by it...then it proves that he was never a guy to build around

Man this is 2017 not the 80s or 90s or 2004 Guys are a different type of players today. the stars are more opinionated and Jacksons crap just won't work today. Let's just see.

Well if that's true...then that's very disappointing. That means "stars" are as soft as marshmellows. Hell in high school my bball coach would call me everything in the book during the game and I would use it for motivation(which was his goal) and we would laugh about it afterwards. I have no issue with Phil do that. I have issues with other moves she has made but not that
