Phil on Zach

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Coach Phil Jackson made it clear tonight he likes the game of power forward Zach Randolph, who seems to have found a home with the Memphis Grizzlies after a number of NBA stops, including the Clippers. Jackson planted his tongue firmly in his cheek when asked why Randolph is so successful: “He’s left-handed. The other side of the brain is working hard there. He’s clever. He’s got a great shooting touch. He’s actually 6-foot-11, but because God chose not to give him a neck he only measures 6-9 or 6-8 1/2. So, with his long arms, he can get a lot of offensive rebounds.”
