Phil Jackson is not a racist, he’s a man who has both spoken out about and walked the talk on civil rights.
But he is a 71-year-old who can be stuck in the past — from how he views players and them taking more control of their brand and affairs, to how to build an NBA team for the modern era.
That’s what I discuss in this latest PBT Extra, talking about Jackson’s “posse” comment about LeBron James and the reaction from LeBron, Carmelo Anthony, and others. It’s just a sign of who Jackson is now.
