guerrajohn+FollowDid Phil Jackson Really Want G Money on the Lakers?Laker Nation, let’s talk about the Glen Rice saga. G Money was brought in as the missing piece, but rumors say the Zen Master always wanted his old Bulls wingman, Scottie Pippen, instead. Rice’s wife even claimed Phil never wanted him, and that’s why Glen saw limited minutes—even when Kobe was out in the 2000 Finals. Fans still debate if more Rice could’ve changed Game 3’s outcome, but in the end, the Lakers got the chip. Was this a missed dynasty or just classic Phil mind games? #Lakers #GlenRice #PhilJackson #Sports #Basketball00Share
Patrick Gonzales+FollowGary Payton’s Triangle TroubleWhat happens when an NBA star meets a legendary system he doesn't gel with? Gary Payton’s time with the 2003-04 Lakers was all about this dilemma. Despite his brilliance, "The Glove" chose to play his way rather than embracing Phil Jackson's famed Triangle Offense. In his words, "I didn't want to learn the damn offense." Sometimes, even superstars find it tough to fit into a system that's just not them. 🤷♂️🏀 NBA #Lakers #GaryPayton #PhilJackson #TriangleOffense #Sports302Share
