Slap me silly and call me Susan is this happens. Would Phil run the front office and hire a coach or does he want to coach again? This would make a huge splash and get some of the city back from Brooklyn

I would not be surprised if Amare's expiring is traded for Kobe if this went down

The sources told Smith the message the Knicks received from Jackson was that he was not interested in the position at this time.

Here is to hoping.

Gotta love the Knicks soap opera - always full of drama and rumors.

what changes in the off season? I mean- chicken and egg here - would Phil coach if Dolan gave him power & we were able to swing a Kobe for Stat & Chandler type deal, and Melo resigns?

Well, we don't make those moves without Phil firmly on board.

If he said he wasn't interested at this time - I don't see any indication in that statement that would give me hope.

Dolan should throw him a slice of ownership. It would be the best money Dolan could spend.

I'm sure Woodsons gonna love answering questions about Phil before tonights game
Knicksfan: Hypocrite league that fines players after the game for flopping but in the game and with obvious flopping they call the fouls.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was hired to run the team. He won't coach though.

As much as I would love any of that, there is absolutely nothing in the reporting to indicate any such occurrence is likely, not now or in the future.
