One would think that a talented superstar like Carmelo Anthony<\/a> and a genius leader like Phil Jackson would be a great fit. But the exact opposite happened during their time together on the New York Knicks<\/a>.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Anthony and Jackson were a match made in heaven\u2014if heaven was a boxing ring. They publicly feuded over the direction of the Knicks, with Anthony being the go-to guy<\/a> and Jackson serving as the team president.<\/p>\n On \u201cThe Big Podcast,\u201d Anthony revealed that he and Jackson only talked twice, and that he grew frustrated<\/a> with his relationship with the enigmatic mentor.<\/p>\n \u201cI used to reach out to people. But how do you deal with this mother******?\u201d said the 10-time All-Star.<\/p>\n \u201cIf you want me to do something, you can coach me through it. You can bring it to my attention.

The guy who wears the white hat on the team,\u201d added Anthony, one of the most iconic players to suit up for the Knicks<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cBecause it\u2019s an easier scapegoat to point me out than it is to just man up and say, \u2018You know what, my tenure wasn\u2019t great at all. I had a f***** up tenure.’\u201d<\/p>\n The Knicks went 90-171 during Jackson\u2019s tenure, including 17-65 in the 2014-15 season, which is tied for the team\u2019s worst record ever.<\/p>\n Related: Karl-Anthony Towns wants that \u2018feeling of championship\u2019 amid NBA Cup chase<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Related: Spurs\u2019 Mitch Johnson skirts question on Victor Wembanyama\u2019s usage in NBA Cup Final vs Knicks<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js<\/a> Carmelo Anthony lets it all out about relationship with Phil Jackson on Knicks appeared first on ClutchPoints.
