Carmelo Anthony said Wednesday that he has heard Phil Jackson will be "coming on board" with the New York Knicks, the strongest indication yet that the 11-time NBA champion coach will soon be taking over the teams basketball operations. Anthony went as far as to suggest that its no longer a question of if Jackson will rejoin the Knicks, but when. "Everythings in his hands now," Anthony told reporters in Boston at the Knicks gameday shootaround practice. Neither the Knicks nor Jackson had any immediate comment. Jackson played on the Knicks last championship team in 1973, and later went on to win six NBA titles as a coach with the Chicago Bulls and five more with the Los Angeles Lakers. "Im agnostic as to what team, but I would love to see Phil Jackson" back in the league, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Wednesday after speaking to the Boston College Chief Executives Club of Boston. "To have one of the greatest ever sitting on the sidelines is a loss for the league," Silver added. "The league needs him. I hope he lands with some organization." Jackson, 68, has said in the past that teams have tried to lure him back to the NBA, and there has been speculation for several days that this offer from the Knicks would be good enough to get him to interrupt retirement. Jackson has been out of the league and largely out of the public eye since 2011, when he ended his coaching stint with the Lakers. "I still dont have a lot of the details, all the details," Anthony told reporters. "Have I heard? Yeah, Ive heard that he will be coming on board. Its not official yet. You can always use Phil Jacksons insight on whatever ... his philosophy, his mindset, his resume, what he brings to the game, what he brings to a team or organization. That goes without even saying, so well see how that plays out." Anthony said he hasnt spoken with Jackson about his plans for the Knicks. If this deal becomes official, that will likely change quickly, since Anthony could leave this summer as a free agent. Anthony said the Knicks told him about their pursuit of Jackson over the last couple days. He gave no indication if Jacksons potential involvement with the Knicks would affect his free-agency plans. "It wasnt something that was do-or-die based on my decision," Anthony told reporters. "Them guys was going to make that decision regardless of what I said." Ever since Jackson last coached, there has been a certain amount of guessing about when he would return to the league — or if any offer really could get him to leave Montana, where hes spent much of retirement. He didnt exactly slam the door shut in 2012, telling HBOs "Real Sports" that "there might be" a job that would bring him back to the game. In that same interview, Jackson called the Knicks roster at the time "clumsy" and said Anthony had to become a better passer. But he also seemed to suggest that if he wanted, he could still win. "The game doesnt pass a person by," Jackson told HBO in that interview. The Knicks won 54 games last season and considered themselves to be title contenders. They entered Wednesday on a four-game winning streak, but were still No. 10 in the Eastern Conference standings, 3 1/2 games out of the eighth and final playoff spot. Already, though, speculation is rampant that major changes are coming before next season. Knicks coach Mike Woodson has been on perhaps the hottest of .... seats, Anthony could go elsewhere, and it would certainly make sense if Jackson surrounded himself with people who are familiar with him and the style he used to coach the Bulls and Lakers to the 11 titles. "You cant take for granted what he knows about the game of basketball, whether hes on the sideline or in the front office," Anthony told reporters. "Im sure he will try to his best to do what he has to do to try to build a championship team. He knows how to put guys together, put a team together. Well see what happens."

Despite Barcelona showing the same vulnerability in defence, Messis best performance since returning from a lengthy injury layoff ensured that his side bounced back from a defeat by Valencia in the previous round. http://www.seahawksfansofficial.com/customized/ . -- Theres nothing like winning to bring hope for a struggling team.LOS ANGELES, Calif. - After spending two games in street clothes, Steve Bernier was back in the New Jersey Devils lineup and on the power play.The move paid off Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Kings.Bernier netted two goals with the man advantage, while playing on a line with Adam Henrique and Scott Gomez, and the Devils scored three times during a 68-second span of the second period in a 5-3 victory.It was a different line than I was used to playing on and its a different role, said Bernier, whose power-play goals were his first in 120 games since March 30, 2013. These two guys dont play the same way, and it was a lot of fun to play with them.When youre on the fourth line, its more dump-and-chase. But these guys want the puck on their stick and want to make plays.Martin Havlat, Michael Cammalleri and Michael Ryder also scored for New Jersey, and Cory Schneider made 23 saves. The Devils are 4-3-1 since general manager Lou Lamoriello fired Peter DeBoer on Dec. 27 and went behind the bench with coaches Adam Oates and Scott Stevens.When your boss is in the room with you a lot, youre on alert. Youve got to play well and produce, Schneider said. Hes got a presence, and he was around a lot before he did this. But now hes just trying to get a close-up look and see how things are operating under the hood.It hasnt been wholesale changes. Its been subtle things. Lou has been supportive and encouraging.The Kings goals were scored by Marian Gaborik, Justin Williams and captain Dustin Brown, who ended a 17-game drought. The defending Stanley Cup champions have played 20 consecutive games without being outshot, but are 8-7-5 during that stretch.We just need more effort and a willingness to get it done, Kings defenceman Matt Greene said. Im speaking for myself, but thats what has to get better. Everybody has to get better, but it starts with yourself. The coaches have been doing a good job of breaking it down for us every night. Its just a matter of us showing up and doing it.It was the third meeting between the teams since the Kings beat the Devils in the 2012 Stanley Cup finals. New Jerseys Jaromir Jagr and Tuomo Ruutu didnt make the trip for the three-game West Coast swing because of the flu.The Devils, 2 for 26 on the power plaay over their previous 10 games, opened the scoring on Berniers goal with 14 seconds left in the first period.ddddddddddddI thought the key was us scoring right away, Cammalleri said. I think youve got to give some credit to Adam Oates for putting people in positions where they can succeed on the power play and working on some things that make it hard to defend.Los Angeles Martin Jones, making consecutive starts for the second time this season following a 19-save shutout over Toronto on Monday, was pulled by coach Darryl Sutter at 9:20 of the second period after the Devils grabbed a 3-1 lead on their eighth shot.Bernier was credited with another power-play goal after his intended pass to Cammalleri caromed into the net off the left skate of defenceman Drew Doughty. Havlat added his fourth of the season just 23 seconds later.Our penalty kill is just draining us, Sutter said. It takes so much out of your team. They score the goal at end of the first, then we come back and score, and then we give it up right away. It is really disappointing.The results were the same after Jones was replaced by Jonathan Quick. Cammalleri and Ryder scored on rebounds exactly 7 minutes apart to increase New Jerseys lead to 5-1 at 17:05. It marked the eighth time this season that the Kings allowed at least five goals — something that happened only six times last season.I think all of our goals were a pretty much result of guys working hard to either keep the puck alive with a second or third effort, or to make the extra effort to get on the right side of somebody and compete, Cammalleri said. Sometimes, thats what goal scoring is — a hunger and a compete level. Everybody feels a lot better once the puck starts going in.NOTES: Jones returned to the net for the start of the third period after Quick faced seven shots. ... Rob Blake, inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on Nov. 17, will have his No. 4 retired by the Kings on Saturday. He will be the sixth player so honoured. ... Since their Stanley Cup finals matchup, the Devils are 70-69-36 and the Kings are 93-58-23 with another championship. ... The last time the Kings were outshot was Nov. 29 in 4-1 home loss to Chicago. ... After this trip, the Devils will play 12 of 15 at home. China Jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
