Malone's a dummy, but he's been hurt. As for GP when you have his resume its not ridiculous to assume the coach would create a respectable role for you. Instead they wanted to him to be BJ Armstrong, Ron Harper or Derrick Fisher and I dont blame him one bit for being annoyed. Gary will be an LA scapegoat, go play somewhere else next year and average 20/7 on a playoff team, and people will realize that in Phil's one true coaching challenge he laid a total egg and got outcoached by Larry Brown.
I'm totally with you on the Phil Jackson point. I love that
he sits there like a god, like his sh@t don't stink. In the
news, how he was going to break the record for championships won!
Give us a break! He had the best player seen in the league for at
least a generation and maybe the best SF at his side for 6 of them.
Then he's got the best center in the league and probably the best
SG at his side for the other 3! Big deal! With the talent on this
team, he should have modified HIS damn system to find a way to make
it work! Not have GP as a spectator. And get George to do something
other than brick 3's!
