John Salley and Phil Jackson have great comedic timing. They weren't overlapping each other, they allowed some pause for audience laughter before they went for the punchline.

I could listen to Phil talk basketball for hours. What an absolute legend.

Give me Prime Shaq over Wilt any day of the Week. He Brought the Fire , Energy and Diesel. Man demanded a Double Team every Night. Wilt was Soft

Phil Jackson Was True A Professional and Better Coach of Kobe And MJ ❤❤❤❤

That explains the rumor I heard that Shaq always went shopping naked at Costco.

[@ericthuku9731]

Kobe shot 1000 jump shots daily? and yesterday in a simple pickup game, I scored 15 and started shrugging my shoulders, talking about, "I don know whas happening?"

LEGEND

Papa'h... los Piratas de Quebradillas! Ojala hubiese estado vivo en esa epoca.

[@Stevesautopartsify]

I can't believe I'd rather reminisce about the old NBA then watch the current NBA!

[@oteliogarcia1562]

So, Jerry West left the Lakers after the 2000 championship, Kobe calls him during the 2nd season of the 3-peat, asking how he and Baylor managed to both score a lot during their playing days, and not only does West give Kobe counsel, but he also calls Jackson. Even though he was no longer connected with the team.

Imagine coach a naked Shaq and still need be serious

[@greatest515]

Phil held Kobe back

[@complexitysimple1769]

"Bending their will and bending their egos to make it happen."

[@Rgwaduri88]

I love how he doesn’t mention how Shaq gained all this weight in those summers and fell out of conditioning and would not get surgeries in the summer but instead when it was the season. This guy is a Kobe hater through and through

[@heavi-armed-infadel]

The game vs. Portland wasn't some defensive awakening in the 4th quarter, refs just stopped calling fouls on the Lakers. Blazers got mugged on the offensive end on practically every possession. Was ridiculous.

[@tylerhall9412]

This is awesome

The talented botany spindly pack because protocol ipsilaterally divide an a incompetent weapon. normal, false familiar famous pizza

[@covercurtis]

Phil was a true professional

[@ReallyStrongGuy]

Phil doesn't seem to like childish behavior

[@ReallyStrongGuy]

Lakers should have hired him back under his terms instead of going with Mike D'Antoni. Horrible choice.
