... to alert us to the other things the Lakers need to do — rebound, get out and run, play through the physicality, get better play from the bench mob and Lamar Odom, and use quick passes and ball movement to get open looks. If you want to know more, just re-read the last couple of posts and comments where we break it down in detail. The good news for Lakers fans is we know this team can do that, they are a cohesive team (unlike some of Phil Jackson’s teams in Chicago). ...

Keep Talking Phil
redsarmy.wordpress.com 6/7/2008 — I don’t think the Lakers get it. They (mainly Phil Jackson) keep blabbing away about Paul Pierce’s exit and re-entry in the 3rd quarter of Game 1. I know Jackson is a master-motivator, but I didn’t know he also did it for the opposing team. Thanks Phil. To add fuel to that fire, Gasol doesn’t think the Celtics are physical.

WHAT'S PHIL JACKSON COMPLAINING ABOUT? — The #1 Source for New England Sports Opinions and Propaganda...
Phil Jackson got fined for whining about the officiating in Sunday night's 108-102 loss to the Celtics. The Celtics got to the line many more times than the Lakers did, Kobe had a few soft fouls called on him, and the Celtics played a physical game down low. Then again, the Lakers aren't exactly a hard-nosed team that will draw a lot of fouls. But any bad officiating wasn't one way. The ...

Phil Jackson, Predictably, Has Some Less Than Thrilled Words for the Refs — FanHouse
I am not entirely sure that asking "what strikes you most about that game?" to Phil Jackson after watching the Lakers come up short in a weird comeback attempt during Game 2 of the NBA Finals was such a smart idea.

The prospect of falling behind two games to none to the Celtics in these Finals is something that every Laker fan is worried about as Game 2 approaches, and with good reason.
