Nets Contact Phil Jackson, Uninterested In Either Van Gundy 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue May 7, 2013 2:57 pm

The Brooklyn Nets have contacted Phil Jackson to gauge his interest in their head coaching vacancy.


Jackson is currently consulting the Detroit Pistons on their search for a new head coach. Jackson is helping the Pistons as a favor to owner Tom Gores.


The Nets fired P.J. Carlesimo following their Game 7 elimination to the Chicago Bulls.


Jackson is believed to prefer a role in a team's front office.


The Nets are not interested in hiring either Jeff Van Gundy or Stan Van Gundy for their head job, according to a source.
