Message: [QUOTE="Fairfield Fan, post: 2246050, member: 6911"] Jackson was like McArthur in Korea. He had great successes in previous campaigns, but he was out of his depth with this team. McArthur had no answer for the Chinese onslaught, and Jackson had no clue what to do with the Knicks. I think the last straw was his threat to trade KP. KP had no need for the Knicks, and Jackson's threat was just a gratuitous and mean. Jackson simply wasn't making inroads, and when the players rebelled, he didn't know what to do. Jackson's reputation over many years will still be that of a great coach. People will probably be willing to overlook the Knicks episode. But the Knicks definitely needed to move on. [/QUOTE]
