Phil Jackson

With the Sacramento Kings 116-114 win over the Thunder in Oklahoma City Monday night, George Karl acquired his 1,156th career coaching victory. This put him ahead of the Zen Master himself, Phil Jackson, for 5th on the all-time list. Here is the updated list of the ten coaches with the most regular season victories in [...]

When the New York Knicks selected Kristaps Porzingis with the fourth-overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft, they were rolling the dice. Here was a talented 7-footer with, at the time, the ceiling of a generational talent and the floor of a bust. It was a risky move and a gutsy, dare-to-be-amazing call by team [...]

With the Spurs 118-91 trouncing of the Utah Jazz last night Gregg Popovich collected his 1,043 regular season coaching victory to move him to 8th on the all-time list, passing Rick Adelman. Congrats to Coach Popovich on moving to 8th on the all-time coaching wins list. pic.twitter.com/DOGi4GYsKc — NBA TV (@NBATV) December 15, 2015 Here [...]

Before entering the NBA, New York Knicks rookie Kristaps Porzingis attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. OK, no he didn’t. But you get the point. Porzingis has endeared himself to fans and pundits, even those outside of New York. Deemed a years-long project on draft night, the 20-year-old Latvian product is far more polished [...]

Byron Scott, head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, cannot see Kobe Bryant, a career-long member of the Los Angeles Lakers, playing for another team other than the Los Angeles Lakers. Well, that’s surprising. In absolutely no way. New York Knicks team president Phil Jackson sent Twitter into a miniature tizzy at the start of [...]

Carmelo Anthony has no plans to abandon the New York Knicks. Part of that’s because he’s under contract for the next four years. On top of that, he owns a no-trade clause, giving him final say over where he could be traded, severely limiting the number of suitors the Knicks can contact, as well as [...]

Kobe Bryant has no plans to leave the Los Angles Lakers after the 2015-16 season. Sorry, Phil Jackson’s ego. Jackson, who won three titles as Kobe’s coach in Los Angeles and is now president of the New York Knicks, caused quite a stir last Friday when the ‘Bockers officially opened for business, all but predicting [...]

Phil Jackson is already cashing in on the offseason goodwill he earned among New York Knicks fans. The Zen Master has spent a majority of the summer surprising New York’s fiercely loyal fanbase in a good way. He didn’t do anything stupid on draft night—like trading away the No. 4 pick for a slop heap [...]

Carmelo Anthony just isn’t that into you. But he’s definitely into the triangle offense. Part seven of Charlie Rosen’s Phil Files dropped for ESPN.com, and in this edition, New York Knicks president Phil Jackson talked shop on the team’s individual players. And when it came time to rap about Melo, he not only compared him [...]

The New York Knicks have spent a bulk of the NBA offseason acting like an actual team, which, naturally, has brought the future of Carmelo Anthony into question. Kristaps Porzingis and Jerian Grant won’t help the Knicks win now. Robin Lopez and Kyle O’Quinn are not Marc Gasol and LaMarcus Aldridge. Phil Jackson actually gave [...]
