He was talking at an event for his new shoe. It's a pretty interesting interview in that he sounds pretty sincere in his answers and not just giving cliche answers. It's not exactly a deep probing interview but there were some good questions.

So Kristap, Sasha, Jennings and Rose are already practicing together... And Noah will soon join.
I found this info important and the role that Sasha heaving to connect KP with new point guards is hugely important.
Looks like Sasha will stick with the Knicks as long as Phil is around for sure in various capacities.
Looks like Phil is working diligently to create the best possible environment for KP development.
Rose looks very relaxed and very much in his element.
We have a big group of vets now who can became a leaders on this team... This will be interesting to see who will became as inspiration.

Yeah Rose looks much more settled than he looked at the press conference. He had that shell shocked look when the trade happened. Here he looks happy and relaxed and like he's made the mental shift to his new reality. Phil did a good job with this roster in terms of guys knowing and being comfortable with each other. Also guys from New York or big cities. Not to mention having vets who know what to do. Rose mentioned that he wants to be more efficient.

For what its worth, Greg Anthony agrees with Rose.

"You’ve gotta look at what Phil Jackson did with the New York Knicks. Listen, this is a group that’s going to be motivated. They still have a lot of good basketball left in them. Not just the players. I think bringing in Jeff Hornacek as a hire was a brilliant move.

Conceptually, this team, defensively, they can create some problems. I don’t think that Carmelo [Anthony] has played with more talent in his tenure with the Knicks.
Anthony believes the Eastern Conference Finals are a realistic goal for the Knicks.

I think they can get to the Conference Finals. I truly believe that this group can get there. Again, a lot has to go right. But I think the season is long enough, and if they’re healthy enough, they can work through chemistry. They’ve got a lot of guys who are motivated to prove people wrong."

I think that's what anybody with a clear mind is saying. We still have a ways to go before training camp let alone the season.
