Phil Jackson Reunites With Lakers, Continues Morph Into Colonel Sanders

By Ron - Tuesday June 14th 2005

colonel phil Phil Jackson will return to coach the Lakers next season. Jeanie Buss, Lakers Vice President and daughter of Lakers owner Jerry Buss, was instrumental in the reunion. Oh yeah, Jeanie is also Phil Jackson’s girlfriend of five years.

Jackson is expected to earn around $10 million a season, making him the highest paid coach in NBA history. Thanks Jeanie!

LA sports fans can now look forward to the Spurs sweeping the Lakers in the first round of next year’s NBA playoffs.

What now?

Man, you linked to the NY Times for this? Stay tuned for my analysis wherein I will layout a theory that the firing and re-hiring of PJ was a deliberately orchestrated plan to give PJ a year off, give Jeanie a big personal payday, jettison Shaq’s physical (and fiscal) liability, and force Kobe’s hand into re-signing. Dr. Buss ain’t no fool. Just ask them at the Commerce Casino.

LAT had no mention of a Jeanie Buss tie-in which I thought was huge. NYT did. Thus the linkage.
