    No way to find out. His presence would almost certainly mean they'd be able to sign superstars.

    But his point is a damn good one. Jackson doesn't need any thing to secure his legacy. That is pure New York arrogance to suggest otherwise.

    Perhaps reading further would help?

    His point shows that he has never listened to a Phil Jackson interview where he discusses his interest in coaching The Knicks. Obviously Webster has listened.

    This is too funny for words . . . unless Phil gets an ironclad guarantee that ONCE A PAYROLL BUDGET IS SET, Little Dolan gets ZERO say about ANYTHING related to basketball operations.

    And don't expect even Phil would get that much rope.

    Keep smokin'.

    Phil Jackson may love the idea of coaching the New York Knicks, but not the Dolan Knicks.

    What I could see Phil Jackson doing is meeting with the Knicks and getting his $$$ figure up. ... and then somehow taking the Miami Heat job.

    Auerbach retired from coaching when he was 49. Holzman, 62. Wooden, 65.

    Jackson is 66, and his health has been in question. Is he strong enough to work even if he wants to?

    That isn't about legacy. That is about Jackson's personal attachment to the franchise.

    I never said he wouldn't want to do it. I said he has no need of the Knicks for his legacy. His legacy is secure and to suggest he needs the Knicks for that is, as I said, pure New York arrogance.

    So he can't add to his legacy?
