  With new hip, Jackson rejoins Lakers - Boston.com
Rambis, who has been running practices in the 61-year-old coach's absence, said the offense Jackson insisted the players run was simply another way to initiate the triangle.
Rambis said Jackson was around for about three-quarters of Monday's practice, but wasn't there when the media was allowed in.
Rambis said Jackson spoke to the team about communicating on defense and passing, and the players seemed to be paying strict attention.

 Forum Blue And Gold » Blog Archive » Looking Back at Kurt Rambis
Before the start of the 1980-81 season Rambis was cut by the Knicks (who decided to keep second round pick Dewayne Scales of LSU at the four).
His offense was nothing to speak of but he was grabbing an impressive 16.8% of the available rebounds when he was on the floor and his defense was very good —opponents were scoring seven points less per 100 possessions than the league average, a better defensive rating than any other Laker that season.
From that season through the 88-89 season, Rambis would be in the top 10 in the league in rebound percentage grabbed (that last season with Charlotte).
