Looks like Phil is going to go another year. Glad to hear it, but I have to seriously wonder if this will be his last run. With Jacksons health issues, I can't see him coaching much longer, this might be his last Hurrah.

Time will tell, but he'll be around at least one more year. Good for the Lakers, where else were they going to find someone to keep a lid on Kobe and Artests ego's?

Rambis has to be the most patient assistant in league history.

Jackson stays as long as this core is together and as long as they can reload on departing pieces. I don't care if they win the title again next year, he is not going to leave until this teams run is done IMO.
