God, is he arrogant. WOW.

Any success he's earned as a coach, he owes to MJ/Pippen, then Kobe/Shaq. Those all-world players were driving forces that yielded the championships, not him. And then to be so arrogant with his book (ripping people in his book like Kobe), flaunting his rings, now quoting his own book.. Gimmie a break.. LMAO.

Great Leader Uncle Phil has finally taken the gloves off.

Hooray (!)

Now that we've purged the bourgeois deviationist elements (Fisher et al) from the Party . . . we can get the Revolution back on the road.

Go to it . . . Comrade Rambis (!)

ALL TRIANGLE . . . ALL THE TIME (!)

Phil consistently exhibiting a pattern of team over best player or coach available. He has also demonstrated that he will jettison anyone who exhibits behavior contrary to his belief of team first. Just using the roster turnover and trades from last season, FA signings from this season, and now the coach as a canvas in which to make this assumption, Phil has been very consistent in his beliefs.

Whether that will translate into winning in the NBA with this franchise in this City is yet to be seen. Will Kalifornia culture win in a NY market? This hasn't exactly been all rainbows and lollipops so far. I applaud his rigid approach to team, and rigid approach to sharing. All good concepts that each individual should aspire to. The giving of ones self for the betterment of the community, this country was founded on it. Perhaps Phil can find a way to balance his beliefs with the reality of todays world and specifically how it translates into competitive sports. This is not a cult, it is a sports team in a competitive city that places winning over morals and ethics. I wish I lived in Phil's world. Sport is a business and sometimes business men forget ethics in an effort to achieve success. Phil is a man of ethics from a generation lost that I admire.

before Phil those guys didnt win anything. Only guy in that group to win without Phil was Shaq with his one Miami ring. It wasnt like Phil was the only ones who coached those guys. Like it or not every situation Phil goes to gets much better and much worse when he leaves.

I'm not put off by Phil's intellectual way of explaining his views. Some media and fans may not understand what he's getting at but it's not impossible to grasp, if you get past the $100.00 words. He's trying to create an environment of selflessness and team play from the D League, NBA team to the Front Office. The chain can't be broken at any point or it won't work.

It's not just about the Triangle Offense. The Triangle Offense is a means to an end but not the ONLY way to achieve what he wants. It is the way he knows best so of course he's gonna be using it right now. It's not the end all be all.

If Phil feels Thibs shares his views on team play, I can see him having no problem with Thibs even if he's not wedded to the Triangle Offense. They would have to have that deep conversation to see if Thibs has the right mentality for what Phil believes is needed. For right now Rambis has first crack at it.

I'm a psychotherapist trained in the Rogerian approach, so this tweet made me chuckle. It basically has a positive view of people, that no matter what ****ty circumstances they're in or have grown up in, part of them is always trying to be survive the best that they can, even if that comes out in distorted and destructive ways. Rogers used the metaphor of a potato- even if its kept in the dark in a crappy environment, it will grow long sprouts that are still trying to reach the light. Your body and brain are always looking out for you, even if it doesn't seem that way at the time. It's about learning to trust and value yourself and your gut feelings, rather than be who you think other people think you should be.

The psychology of your average NBA player is much more than I personally can imagine having to deal with.

Sheeesh.

So I greatly admire Phil Jackson for being willing to try to do it . . . against the considerable odds.
