News in the NBA this week reports that Los Angeles Lakers coach, Phil Jackson has quit his job with LA, after complications with staff. It has been said that he and Lakers General Manager, Mitch Kupchak had disagreements about where the team was going. We were unable to get comments from Kupchak, but we could infact get word from former coach Phil Jackson. He had this to say:

"Leaving LA was my own decision. I was not fired, but I decided to leave. Mitch and I were having disagreements for weeks, and finally I got tired of it. If I am going to work in the NBA, it won't be for someone who disagree's with what I do. I will pursue my career elsewhere in the NBA. "

It has been noted that PJ has spoken about stepping up to a GM spot. It is unknown what team he will work with, but it is for certain that it will be an interesting story to follow.

Please post ideas for what team to play for. I was thinking about Washington but I really don't know. So please vote for any team.
