It is a truly vain and trivial pursuit for a basketball writer to throw shade at Phil. How many years has he outsmarted the media for? Can you rehash your takes from when he drafted Porzingis?

Jackson has been doing ok with the very bad hand he was dealt - poop roster, aging/unsatisfied star past his prime, draft picks traded away.

Why because he called Melo out on something that people have been saying about him since his Syracuse days

Odd that a site that has shit on Melo for years and years now is upset that the GM of the team called him out for something that eveyone has said about Melo for since he was in college. God I wonder why

Scoreboard- Jackson 11 titles, Carmelo 0.

A lot of heat on this take. Do you understand the triangle offense at all? I like Melo but he does fuck it up. I will say that it’s better if these conversations don’t go through the media, but Phil is right.
