Monroe had previously made these comments.
It’s a shame that people just write stuff that’s not factual at all but we as players have to come in here and answer for it when we have absolutely nothing to do with it. I guess he’s doing his job.
Monroe seemed to perk up about potentially joining the Knicks once Phil Jackson was mentioned.
Greg Monroe on Phil Jackson: "Anyone who has had as much success as he has.. it’s not hard to be comfortable with the decisions they make."
