Phil
Jackson’s checklist
by rick olivares
According
to some reports, Phil Jackson will not be coaching again. “I have no intention
of ever coaching again,” said the Zen Master to SheridanHoops.com.
Despite
Jackson’s proclamation, many expect him to come back next season to coach the
underachieving or overachieving (depending on how you look at them) Brooklyn
Nets.
I
looked to Jackson’s past and have found a formula that if it works will
determine if Big Chief Triangle has one more NBA run in him. And I ran that
checklist against three possible destinations.
I
omitted the criteria of “title contender” from the checklist as it is a given.
Of
the three, it is the Nets – although they do not satisfy all the criteria –
that look to be the closest. But it’s both hilarious and amazing at the same
time to see the similarities.
PJ
Carlesimo has gone 1-6 since he took over as interim coach but that doesn’t
mean is all right in Brooklyn.
I
guess we will really find out what the score is at the end of the season and if
Phil Jackson has one more ride in him.
