Phil said that base on what he saw last season, and it wasn't just a amare and melo thing, throw tyson in that mix too along with no pg, a shaky ass bench that did not complement each other at all.
The high turnovers last year, the below 500 with melo tyson and amare, melo runing the point for almost a month, and as a team (especially early in the season) were not on the same page..
I still agree with him

Aaaaah, that's too close.......I wouldn't use that one.
Phil Jackson is right. I don't see the point of argument. The only thing he wouldn't be able to say was that Felton has improved dramatically. He would've been a good fit. I think Melo would shine in a triangular offense/defense. Amar'e would be a problem in that system and so's Chandler. Would he be a better coach? I don't know, but I definitely know he would be harder to not getting his hands deep into personnel decisions whereas Woodson is a lot more flexible, and that's VERY IMPORTANT to Jimmy D. Phil was never considered mainly because of this boss/coach situation, and you can quote me on that.

Same reason why the Lakers dissed him. His time has passed. He was a great coach.
Honestly,I dont give a rats butt what jackson says. I really expect him to come out of the woodwork and say something negative about this Knicks team.

So far yeah. I'm interested in giving them another shot since this team is rolling and we have a nice group of vets and smart players.

Hopefully Jax is wrong... should man be wrong at least sometimes?
