Default Re: Phil Jackson should retire

He's become a very mediocre coach, basically just taking the money and hoping Kobe scores 60 so that the Lakers can win. He then has no reasonable explanation for why the Lakers lose when they lose and reverts to either apparently zenlike nothings, hoping his reputation will confuse the reporters, or ill-considered unfunny jokes like the one he used that night.

The NBA itself is a joke, so I supposed it doesn't matter.

This is not correct. He has had to deal with a slew of injuries to where his only option has been to let Kobe score a bajillion. Two years ago he was criticizing Kobe for this a lot, which led to a couple infamous games where Kobe took no shots and basically let the team try and win. Last year after walton and odom were out he didn't seem to care which was the correct move imo.
