Column - March 31, 2021
Honesty and accountability for one’s shortcomings are vital criteria for being a professional in any industry. It appears Phil Jackson is not open to showing either when it comes to his time with the New York Knicks.
Recently, Jackson was a guest on “The Curious Leader” podcast, hosted by former Lakers shooting guard Coby Karl. In the episode, Jackson examined the series of events that plagued his Knicks tenure while simultaneously casting blame on Carmelo Anthony, the harsh media and even the fanbase for his dismissal from the organization on June 28, 2017.
