Phil Jackson doesn’t give a damn what anybody thinks about him or the way he is exercises his duties as Knicks president. There is no other way to explain the way he is approaching this head coach search.
Over the past two days, Jackson has tweeted photos from Iowa and Nebraska. ESPN’s Ian Begley reported Thursday that “some involved in the Knicks coaching search have been informed that Phil is away right now.” Marc Berman of the New York Post reported that Jackson is on his way home from Montana to collect his thoughts. Chris Neyenhouse of the Siouxland News was told by Phil’s brother that he was being driven home to Idaho by Phil.
