Com'on, let's not get into personal attack here. If you disagree with the guy, just present your point, or ignore it. There is no need to get down dirty!
Off-topic, but that's my favorite sports poster of all-time. (Sacrilege, I know). Look at how his head is rim-level, SEVEN feet away from the basket. Breathtaking.
In response, JVG said (paraphrase) "He's saying we aren't allowed to compete with them. Everyone wants the Lakers in the Finals.Well, we'll see with the crew they have here tonight, when Phil tells the league to jump, how high they will jump"
I saw Clyde do the same thing. Great photo of Jordan, however. I hope the Rockets take Phil and Bryant down a peg or two. I disagree with Jackson about the refs. I thought they let 'em play, which I loved. Bryant was classless not to give any credit to Mobes for his defense, but that doesn't surprise me. The guy has an ego the size of Mount Rushmore.
Would people stop calling this **** Phil Jackson does Mind Games, and please stop with the whole Zen reference. What he does is no different than what a spoiled 5 year old girl does; *****, whine, and complain until she gets what she wants. Just because it's worked for so many years doesn't make it Mind Games.
So, would you kind enough to enlight us what's the definition of "mind game" in your book, if you get one?
me are dumb. me have no book. Normally, I'd figure something considered 'Mind Games' to involve the slightest bit of intelligence. Just because he's able to articulate his message better than a child doesn't mean what he's saying is any form of a Mind Game. Again, show me the difference between what he does and what a young child does when he/she wants something. Don't get me wrong, I'm not faulting him for his hustle. He can keep doing it until it stops working, or at least until he gets an average team(read: Utah). It's just annoying to hear 'Mind Games' when all he's doing is b1tching.
