You know me; I'm too professional, polite and reverential of the coaching profession to speculate about interim Mike Woodson's successor while he still retains the Knicks' (favorite) title . . . at least as long as he's undefeated.
Pressed by unfeeling editors, I had no choice but to voice an educated estimation whether Phil Jackson can be tempted to return to his NBA roots as the Knicks coach.
Off the record — because I don't want Jackson to see my name attached to any of this, knowing once he sees I'm still writing, he'll feel compelled to end his career the way it began, with me covering him — the possibility of him accepting the job is probably as fanciful-squared as I plan to lead you to believe.
