Phil Jackson is the coach of the Lakers again. A year after he wasn't offered a contract to stay with the team, the Zenmaster returns to L.A., where he won three of his nine championships as a head coach.

There's no doubt in my mind that the Lakers would be the best situation for Phil Jackson. He knows this team, and they already have the precepts of his triangle offense in place from his last stint there. Also, he won't have to deal with any squabbling between his two best players, because this is obviously Kobe Bryant's team now.

In addition to that, Kobe probably learned a lot about himself as a player this season. He should know now that he can't do it all by himself. He needs a structure and a coach who can handle him, and he'd have that with Jackson.

People forget that Jackson is a great coach. Sure he's had some tremendous talent on his teams throughout his career, but they were all players who hadn't won without him. He makes great players even better.

I saw firsthand proof of his greatness as a coach while I played for the New York Knicks after Michael Jordan's first retirement. Without Jordan, Jackson led his team to 55 wins and to the Eastern Conference semifinals, where they lost to my team in seven games.
