Jennifer Carr ‏@LATimesJennCarr · 21m21 minutes ago

BREAKING NEWS: Sources @latimes are reporting that NY Knicks President Phil Jackson will step down later this week.

EDIT: Likely a hoax and non-verified twitter account.

Let's see if it's verified. Haven't seen this from the NY end yet.

Makes some sense. Hornacek doesn't seem like a Phil hire.

This is the same account that claimed to have sex with Ted Cruz. It is a hoax. http://lawnewz.com/high-profile/college-student-says-she-didnt-have-sex-with-ted-cruz-after-twitter-impersonation/

Since this seems to be bogus, I'm going to lock. If it turns out to be true, someone else will start a thread.
