I just don’t think as a player, you can get away with that type of thing in the NBA ... Somebody is going to see it. There’s going to be alcohol on your breath. It’s just not going to happen on a day-to-day basis. ... Ron was just talking about the struggles that he’s had in his career.
-
Kobe Bryant, the most important member of the Lakers and, to a sizable degree, an extension of Phil Jackson.
SOURCE: Los Angeles Times -
We have a lot of people who know Ron and know his history and have been around him ... We're a pretty sharing community here in the NBA, and we have pretty in-depth information on who people are.
-
Asked about the lackluster play of the bench players near the end of a fairly routine victory Tuesday night over the New York Knicks, Lakers coach Phil Jackson did not sugarcoat what he believed to be another in a string of lackluster showings. 'Right now they're just filling minutes for guys who are ge...

I just don't believe that at all ... I don't believe a player could get away with that kind of thing in the NBA. Someone's going to see you. There's going to be alcohol on your breath. It's just not going to happen on a day-to-day basis. I know Ron said those things and I have to respect that he's speak...

He's a fearless competitor. He has picked up the offense as well as anybody on our team ... and I like the way he's picking up challenges defensively. Brewer averaged 12.3 points and 6.3 rebounds in the Timberwolves' first three games under Rambis, who has installed a version of former boss Phil Jackson...

We’ll get really a measure of this team, where we’re at this point in the season, with Miami and Phoenix (on Sunday).

I think that Tex Winter should be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. There's a contributor category. He's not a head coach in the NBA, but he is the guy who put the offense in for Phil Jackson, who owns 10 championship rings. He's the architect of the triangle offense in Chicago and Los Angeles....

I don't know if this was a daily or game-by-game occurrence or not ... I just don't think a player can get away with that kind of thing in the NBA.

I'm trying to find my way around that and do what (coach Phil Jackson is asking) ... He wants me to be more aggressive. But I'm just transitioning into that. Coming from Phil, that's definitely a compliment.
-
That's a curiosity of basketball and the fragility of the sport at times ... One, they were really in accord as a team. They had Tyson chandler playing at a high level. [Peja] Stojakovic was healthy, so he was a big feature of that team. David West was just coming into his own as a scorer.
-
When you hire Kurt, you're not getting Phil Jackson ... You're hiring Kurt Rambis and all his experiences. He'll be the coach he wants to be. You won't get a Phil clone.
-
We’re playing pretty good basketball, but you really can’t measure it ... I thin kit’s really hard to measure it. I think we’ll get a measure of this team and where we’re at at this point in the season with Miami (on Friday) and Phoenix (on Sunday).

I get a chance to play with Phil Jackson ... That’s pretty crazy. Amazing. Shocking. Every word that means something like that.
-
I think Minnesota’s a very good team
-
Of course, the coach (Jeff Bower) was the former general manager and he did draft Collison and this is, obviously, a good opportunity to get him a good chance ... Starters' minutes are sometimes easier than bench minutes.
-
The offer was probably the best offer I had ever seen as a coach ... It wasn't enough. It doesn't have what a team has to have, a heartland, a fan base, an energy source. I don't even know if New Jersey has a television station. They get their TV from New York and Philadelphia.
-
The offer was the best offer I've ever gotten as a coach, but they didn't have what a team needs to succeed; a heartland, a fan base and an energy source ... I don't even know if New Jersey has their own television station, they get most of their feeds from New York and Philadelphia.

I supposed if they lost the Indiana game, it would've put more pressure on them to do that

I told them if you get in the playoffs and beat out Cleveland for the eighth spot, the team was built to beat Miami ... Sure enough, there was an 8 (vs.) 1 upset, and they went to the Finals that year. Those talks immediately ended when they started rolling in the playoffs.

I think he's a little like Sam Lacey, who played with the Kansas City Kings with Nate Archibald ... He could run the court, wasn't really a power body. He was tall and angular and could really play the game. I admire the way (Noah's) playing, the way he's coming. His attitude this year has been tremendo...
-
Ron Artest said we were going to have to grind out this game ... It is a kind of grinding team. We are going to have to be physical and aggressive and are just going to have to play at that level.
-
All those guys can play the post position. Jackson wasn't certain how much running Gasol would be able to do in his first game since an Oct. 9 exhibition against the Golden State Warriors. What's more, Gasol had only a handful of full-speed practices after he was injured Oct. 10. He hasn't played the ga...
-
Chuck Hayes is 6-8 trying to guard Andrew, but he has a strong base and can get him off balance ... Shane Battier (a 6-8 small forward) is one of the best defenders against Kobe, and sometimes Kobe wants to take the bait and prove `You can't defend me,' and sometimes that works to our disadvantage.

There's no doubt that we consider the team among the three or four [top] teams in the Western Conference
