Ex-Knicks coach explains Phil Jackson’s low profile since firing
Kurt Rambis and Phil JacksonLOS ANGELES — Kurt Rambis said there’s a reason former Knicks president Phil Jackson has kept a low profile since getting fired 18 months ago.
Rambis, fired as Knicks associate head coach after last season, is back as a Lakers special advisor — a liaison between the coaching staff and front office.
Rambis — with the Knicks four seasons, including a stint as interim head coach — broke his silence Friday on ESPNLA’s “The Sedano Show.” Sitting in an outdoor makeshift studio, Rambis said he dines with Jackson, 73, frequently, but says the invisible Zen Master is struggling.
