Coach Philip

I think this guy is a jackass and a total overacheiver. He's egotistical and refuses to adjust with the times. He hung on the coat-tails of Shaq, Kobe, and Michael Jordan. The guy is sooo overrated and since he coaches the Lakers I can't stand him. That being said, this guy is a classic! The stuff he says, I don't understand how he gets away with it. He calls out opponents, his own players, management and people don't really see the controversy in the media. I see it for sure and I want his publicist. Also, this guy has a way with words and I swear he practices this stuff at home. He's my new public speaking idol!! Read below:

NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA has spoken with the Los Angeles Lakers about a comment coach Phil Jackson made following Tuesday night's game in San Antonio.
The Spurs made 13 three-pointers in their 107-92 victory, and Jackson was asked if too much penetration was leading to open outside shooters.

"We call this a Brokeback Mountain game, because there's so much penetration and kickouts," Jackson said. "It was one of those games."

The 2005 film, which won three Oscars, depicts two cowboys who conceal their homosexual affair.

"The remarks are in poor taste, and the Lakers have assured us such remarks will not occur in the future," league spokesman Brian McIntyre said.
