I haven't seen this posted anywhere else, but if true, this may be a huge hit to LA.

This is why I love not having any foreign players on the Celtics. I don't want players like Ginobili, Gasol, and Yao who may be great players, but don't rest injuries when international competitions come around.

USA players also play some competitions during summer ::)

Too bad; I would have liked to out-perform when they were at their absolute best, so it shows that we are without a doubt the superior team.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

I think Phil Jackson is making this up.  ESPN said he was joking.

Wow, Phil Jackson has solidified himself as the biggest tool as head coach in the NBA.

Remember when Kobe wanted to leave LA? Wasn't that when he was playing without Pau? I don't think this team can really survive losing him for a long stretch of time.

I wish no pain upon anyone on the Lakers, but if i'm in the Western conference i go at this team every night in hopes of knocking them as far back as possible.

This is not a very good PR stunt by the Lakers. Phil Jackson is no Bill Belichick when it comes to hiding information from the media.
Wins are few, times are hard. Here is your bleeping St Patricks Day Card.

Oh, Phil, you are such a kidder.  Whoopie must have rubbed off on you.

Haha ugh, I cringe any time I see/hear that commercial.

I'm glad to hear that this was just a "joke," we don't want LA to have any excuses.
