Phil Jackson hasn’t selected a head coach for the New York Knicks yet, but he’s already received a fine for tampering. Last week, Jackson mentioned current Oklahoma City Thunder guard Derek Fisher – one of Phil’s former players and owner of five rings with the Lakers – as a potential coaching candidate for the Knicks.
The Thunder weren’t feeling that bit of commentary and the league levied a $25,000 fine against Phil.
Despite the fine, Fisher and Phil are scheduled to meet later this week.
