There's no way Jackson refused to coach for any away games and there's most certainly no way he said he wouldn't coach playoff games. At worse he would've asked for the travel schedule he had when he had his hip surgery which still had him coaching 70(ish) games.
Beware Broussard and the rest that have some ass to cover right now.

LA Reporter chick on Dan Patrick Show today said it's all smoke to get LA fan not to give the Lakers heat for not picking up Phil, that in fact Lakers never got to the money talking phase with Phil and wanted D'toni as the better short-term option.
