The New York Knicks apparently need to get more Zen in their dealings with the media, and only one man can help them with that.
According to a recent report by Frank Isola of the New York Daily News, Knicks president Phil Jackson briefly met with the team to discuss comments they made to the media after a blowout opening night loss to the Cavaliers.
Derrick Rose, in particular, made some remarks that were somewhat critical of himself and his fit in the offense after the game, while Carmelo Anthony echoed Rose’s sentiment as well.
Jackson appears to be making a concerted effort this season not to meddle as much in the team’s day-to-day affairs. But with the new-look roster facing an uphill battle to come together as a team (as this other Knicks star alluded to), they certainly don’t need a media firestorm brewing, and Jackson is well-aware of that much.
