ESPN's JalenRose blasts Phil Jackson over NBA comments: 'When somebody shows you who they are, believe them'
Former Los Angeles Lakers head coach Phil Jackson during a news conference at the Lakers training facility on May 11, 2011 in El Segundo, California.
"The same Phil Jackson that won championships with some of the greatest Black athletes in the history of the game – Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Shaquille O’Neal, Kobe Bryant. Made millions on their backs and off their sweat equity. You’re sitting there watching the game with your grandkids and y’all think its funny when justice passes the ball to equal opportunity. When somebody shows you who they are, believe them.
Jackson continued,"They even had slogans on the floor, on the baseline. It was catering. It was trying to cater to an audience, or trying to bring a certain audience into play. And they didn’t know it was turning other people off. People want to see sports as non-political.
