he has cancelled a prior engagement he had scheduled to be a keynote speaker at a conference in Chicago on Wednesday. Loooks like Kobe gets his coach back. I dont think this helps the Lakers any, because Phil Jackson is done at this point in his career he willl just milk the Lakers for another 10-15 million dollars. Folks tend to forget that his last year was not so great.
At the end of the day Lakers still have no bench, and no defense. Kobe is slower and hobbled, Nash is old, and Howard is comign off back surgery. As the Celtics are figuring the league is much younger now with kids with spry legs and a lot of energy. You have to be ready to match that night in and night out. The model of the NBA future is not San Antonio, but the Clippers.
