Francesa Shuts Down Mike In Montclair For Complaining About Phil Jackson Not Attending Knicks Games
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Mike Francesa put the great Mike in Montclair in his place for getting on Phil Jackson for not attending a lot of Knicks home games.
"Just because you have an opinion of something doesn't mean it's an opinion that's worth anything," Francesa said.
Mike in Montclair was upset that the Knicks president is at the Woodstock Inn two weeks before the season ends, instead of going to the games.
Francesa told him it doesn't matter where Jackson watches the games.
"Where he watches the game from is not the issue. You're telling me he has to see every game live?" Francesa shot back. "You're being a little ridiculous, aren't you?"
Francesa then brought up the point that maybe Jackson should be at this weekend's Final Four to scout players since the Knicks will most likely have a high draft pick.
"Now if you wanted to say I want him live at the Final Four, if you used that, that would've been a fair assessment that he should've been scouting the Final Four," Francesa said. "That's a fair statement. That's a legitimate question to ask him. Your other one was dumb. That one would've been a very fair criticism."
