Jackson recently made headlines for his comments about the NBA becoming too political and catering to a &#8220;certain audience&#8221; since 2020. Rose responded with a video on Sunday, calling out Jackson&#8217;s hypocrisy. &#8220;The same Phil Jackson that won championships with some of the greatest Black athletes in the history of the game \u2013 Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Shaquille O\u2019Neal, Kobe Bryant. Made millions on their backs and off their sweat equity,&#8221; Rose said. He went on to urge viewers to &#8220;believe&#8221; Jackson when he shows his true colors and to &#8220;stop watching&#8230;forever.&#8221; Jackson&#8217;s comments about the NBA&#8217;s political stance were made in reference to the league&#8217;s decision to create a &#8220;bubble&#8221; for teams to play in during the pandemic, with slogans like &#8220;Justice&#8221; and &#8220;Equal Opportunity&#8221; on players&#8217; jerseys. Jackson&#8217;s remarks have sparked a debate about the role of politics in sports, with many arguing that sports and politics should remain separate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former NBA star Jalen Rose, who currently serves as an analyst for ESPN, slammed legendary NBA coach Phil Jackson over the weekend after Jackson blasted the NBA last week.
