They say it's done.

Rick Fox and Greg Anthony look like they were getting confirmation via text from Jackson himself. NBA TV called it official.

best news in 20 years as a knick fan!

when can he start? How about now?

If our owner finds a way to screw this up, and makes Jax quit, we HAVE to go after him with pitch forks and fire! Just HAVE TO!

WOW SURREAL

Seeing his pic with the NYK Logo is giving me chills. Who knows if it works, but it's fun.
mreinman @ 3/12/2014 11:12 PM
did we give up any draft picks?

Shaq saying he thinks Phil brings in a coach to run the triangle. Wonder if it is Kerr.
MSG3 @ 3/12/2014 11:15 PM
I'd expect more media guys to be confirming this right now. But no one is refuting it. Still not comfortable until I see more.
CrushAlot @ 3/12/2014 11:18 PM
What guys are out there that coach the triangle? Shaw was always the guy mentioned to replace Jax in la.

Anyone think that Kurt Rambis will be in the fold for us? What about Bill Cartwright?

Well, I'll be damned. I didn't fully believe it would happen. Today's a good day!

Maybe Cartwright. I think it will either be a guy that coached under Phil or played under him. But I don't remember Phil having many young assistants. Jim Clemons, Shaw, can't remember anyone else young enough to still be on the bench.

Bring in Patty Mills and sign Scottie Wilbekin(SEC player of the year and Defensive player of the year) as a UFA or buy a 2nd to draft him.

I was not sure about Mills as a pg because of his low assists but in the triangle. Make it happen Cap'n.

Also, Wilbekin is a true defensive point with long range shooting. Think Patrick Beverly intensity with probably more upside as a true point given Billy D's offensive system. The kid cam into school as a 16 year old(played at 17) and earned minutes guarding opposing teams best offensive guard or wing. His overall FG% is down but he has been so clutch after shaking off the rust earlier in the season because of suspension and injury.
