    Phil Jackson won't be coaching tomorrow now due to health issues. In his stead, Kurt Rambis will coach the Lakers.

    He's never come across as a great guy IMO. He just seems like a prick.

    What? You can't coach sitting from your chair?

    Jedi mind tricks. No lose situation for Phil in missing this game. Me thinks he was nervous about the Blazers. What better time to turn it over to Kurt and say, "Here, you take 'em on, big fella."

    Excuses, excuses
    He is playing his usual mind game. He is looking for a reason for his next ass whooping.
    Fuck Phil Jackson, the Lakers and the horse they rode into town in.

    I find this kind of interesting that he'll coach tonight against Denver at home, but not in Portland. Hmmm... maybe that leg can't stand up to the ASSKICKING the Lakers will get that night.

    The only way it effects the game is if Rambis decides to play Kobe less minutes than what Phil would. And that won't happen.

    He probably didn't want to deal with the depressing cold, grey, rainy skies up here in Canad...er... Portland.

    He didn't want another loss in Portland on his personal record.

    He is just tired of using the rain and snow excuses. With him not coming he can use that this time.

    Re: Breaking News....

    Phil Jackson is a great coach because of how he develops his players and coaches them to play together in a system that maximizes their talents. His impact isn't in the actual in-game coaching.

    IMO, this is a non-issue.
