Deciphering Phil Jackson's latest weird tweet What is Phil trying to say? Check out this story on greenfield-westallisnow.com: http://usat.ly/2k9GrDy New York Knicks president Phil Jackson answers questions during a news conference at the team's training facility in Greenburgh, N.Y. Jackson took what appeared to be another dig at forward Carmelo Anthony in a tweet on Feb. 7, 2017. The New York Knicks have had a lot of problems this season , and on Wednesday night, things only got much worse.
On Tuesday, Phil Jackson took a shot at New York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony in the most Phil Jackson way possible. Anthony has been involved in a number of rumors lately as a trade candidate before the NBA's trade deadline on February 23rd, to the point where Anthony himself said they're testing his will .
After voicing his displeasure with a damning article penned by a Phil Jackson confidant, Carmelo Anthony said Monday he heard only silence from the Zen Master and general manager Steve Mills. Anthony indicated he would sooner be traded than play for the Knicks if Jackson doesn't want him here.
Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek fiercely defended Carmelo Anthony on Thursday, saying he believes Anthony's second-quarter ejection the night before in Atlanta - for throwing a forearm at Thabo Sefolosha's head - was the wrong decision. The Knicks star meanwhile raised the stakes for Friday's game in the Big Easy, saying beating the Pelicans now is essential after the Atlanta debacle.
