Phil Jackson is a "closer;" he takes championship level teams to the next level. The present Lakers are not yet ready for prime time.
why he should do it:
1. Kobe is still a top 5 player in the Association.
2. Smashin' on the bosses' daughter, PJ can roll into work when he wanna.
3. Presumably, in addition to the $10 mill/season, he'd have the ok to put his foot dead off in Kobe's azz, if need be.
why he shouldn't do it:
1. Tim Duncan
2. Kevin Garnett
3. Yao Ming
(The Lakers at present have no answer for any of these WC big men.)
4. Kobe still hasn't learned how to be a teammate, and make his squad better.
