Phil Jackson: Cryptic tweet 'misunderstood,' calls for peace
You'd be forgiven for not knowing exactly how to interpret this enigmatic tweet Tuesday from New York Knicks president Phil Jackson:
Bleacher's Ding almost rings the bell, but I learned you don't change the spot on a leopard with Michael Graham in my CBA daze.
— Phil Jackson (@PhilJackson11) February 7, 2017
Many took it as Jackson taking a veiled shot at Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony - including Bleacher Report's Kevin Ding, whose story about Anthony from earlier in the day Jackson appeared to be alluding to.
Well, according to Jackson, those people had it wrong. Though he didn't try to clarify his previous tweet - or clear up anything, really - the Zen Master returned to his social-media soapbox Thursday to whisper words of wisdom, preaching a message of harmony in these fractious times:
So after starting a 🔥storm with a misunderstood tweet, I offer this✌🏻our society is torn with discord. I'm against it. Let It Be
