God, I hope the Knicks hire Jackson. Anyone who think Iverson is the "pound for pound greatest player in NBA history" is a **** idiot.

I loved when Van Gundy called him out on it, because I was thinking to myself "What does that even mean??"

Pound-for-pound makes sense in boxing...not so much in basketball.

Is this why Jax went on with his insane rant a few years ago on ABC of how Kobe was better than Jordan? That's when I lost all respect for him.

His accent sounds funny, so he sounds (Please Use More Appropriate Word)...but he has some good points...if you translate them into English. I love the Breen/Jax/JVG combo...Breen being the dull white guy trying to fit in, Jax being the basketball player who wishes to sound/be a coach, JVG being JVG!

Did anyone hear Dunleavy during the Raptors/Magic game? Whoa, the game was exciting, but he just made it boring...he has no charisma whatsoever. He sounds like a bad videogame commentator.

obviously you've never seen barkey and jet do a game

Thank you, I have always thought this.
It makes me cringe that people think he can actually be a good coach because his basketball analyst. He's a horrible commentator

It's really only Mike Breen and Van Gundy doing the bulk of the commentating. Jackson just throws out stupid one liners every once in a while. Adds absolutely nothing to anything.
