Not like I have a relationship with the former President and he asked me what was on my reading list. Or do I???? Regardless, We are a bunch of guys talking hoop and the past does matter. It was a good era for Knicks and you’ll learn a lot. Starts off very enjoyable as X-man character was described with humor. Its a little painful as we all know the ending all to well. I read Rileys stuff and it was interesting. He puts on a good show at times but it still has teeth. Phils books also were interesting. The hoopla of him talking about players got over played by media given the context of a book does proper weighting. Headlines made him look like a dick at times. He gives the full story and one can judge for ones self. Parroting others is all too easy especially these days. To me what made phil a fascinating study was he really thought outside the box in many ways from most pro coaches, yet he installed a very pure complicated system that few attempted. To know Tex Winters story and how the offense was conceived and implimented was very cool to read. My take is that Phil and his approach was about the only one to professionally make it work in the most outside the box way. In retrospect that he got Jordan to buy in is quite amazing. Naturally Jordan persona does not allow him to give full credit to him. nor to Krause whom Phil did not get along with either. Not that drafting Jordan was any accomplishment at the time, but that Krause orchstrated the union of talent as it unfolded. Given the personalities it was a feat that the era did last as long as it did. You had an owner who participated also. It might not have ended on a good note but what a story it was! His laker era and the relationship with Kobe was a whole other book. Good reading. With this in mind I was stoked when Dolan hired him. We now understand why he wanted Kerr as his coach given his success with GSW. The Fisher hire was something else. The great regret was not that he did not turn out to be a great exec. He sucked but did not damage the franchise mortally in the aftermath. It was that he never coached the knicks. I doubt he’d have achieved what he did had he stayed in the franchise. Perhaps when Dave Checketts was interested in him it could have worked. He used it as leverage to get a deal with lakers who fairly had the talent base far greater than what was had at that time. Everyone has his own path and growth. But its fun to think otherwise. |
