    ^What Auerbach used to criticize Jackson for. Coaching ready made teams looking to get over the hump but had reservations whether he can put one together himself.

    Logo is going to meet with all the Knicks hopefuls and just talk crazy smack about Phil.

    Nah Jerry has too much class for that, but you were kidding I think. I'm surprised he even said that much to whoever it was that wrote that.

    Of course I'm kidding. I have the utmost respect for Jerry West. The guy is a true American hero and I'm not being facetious. He's the exact kind of guy who deserves all the great things that have happened for him... besides losing a bunch to the C Bags. Yikes...

    No, his lack of love for Phil though is still clear after all this time. He's too nice to wish the guy failure, but he's frank enough to point out that Phil bit off way more than he can chew. Phil wanted the position Jerry held for so long (actually higher than that) and so far Phil has looked like a fool.
