Is Phil Jackson committed to the long run in New York?
Phil Jackson may leave the Knicks to run the Lakers?
Will Phil Jackson remain with the Knicks after this season?
Per Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical, Golden State assistant Luke Walton is closest to a legitimately coveted candidate with ties to Jackson and the triangle – and he’s still largely unproven, too. Walton intrigues Jackson, but truth be told: Why would Walton come East without an assurance Jackson is committed to the long run in New York? There’s still a strong belief Jackson will eventually find his way to his fiancée Jeanie Buss and the Los Angeles Lakers. Walton will be competing with Thibodeau for the Lakers job in the spring, and who knows: Jackson and Walton could be reunited there.
