Things haven’t gone smoothly for the 3-8 New York Knicks. First year head coach Derek Fisher is still trying to get his guys to play within the system.
Knicks star Carmelo Anthony is doing everything in his power to understand the triangle offense. Melo is so dedicated to learning the offense that he decided to have a sit down with Phil Jackson.
“We had a great conversation, a very positive conversation,” Anthony said after practice on Monday. “It gave me some clarity whether it was in the system, whether it was things I should do out there for myself, whether it was things I should do out there for the players, for my teammates … I took it extremely well.”
It’ll be interesting to see how the Knicks offense looks as the season goes on.
