He must love taking shots at players before a series. He did it with Kevin Durant and now Steve Nash.
With a mischievous grin, Jackson said Friday that it's tough for Los Angeles to prepare to face Steve Nash during defensive practice because of the two-time MVP's style with the basketball.
"Yeah, because you can't carry the ball like he does in practice," Jackson said. "You can't pick that ball up and run with it."
Jackson turned his palm over while he spoke, making the officials' gesture for palming of the basketball.

Steve Nash responded......
"It's news to me. I'm fortunate. I don't know if I've been called for a carry yet," he said after the Suns practiced Saturday, then he added straight-faced: "I've never heard anyone accuse me of carrying it. I mean, the best coach in the league Gregg Popovich (of San Antonio) didn't have a problem with it last week.
lol nice comeback by Nash.

Nash wins via 1st round KO in the war of words. Series might be different though.

Clearly not in his head, Crazies, because he didn't go on a tirade (by Durant's standards) about Jax's comments.

Nope that was Ron Artest, the same guy who ruined the team's chemistry and derailed the Lakers from repeating. :rolleyes:

Phil Jackson will be at it again when he puts another ring on his finger at the end of the season.

I say this not as a Lakers fan either, because I am not one.

Artest is a good player to have... as long as you have a coach that can limit his terrible shot selection.
