Phil Jackson initiated a discussion of three-point shooting during the playoffs when he appeared to criticize teams like the Golden State Warriors who take a lot of those shots.

Jackson wrote "How's it goink?", which became a meme for the remainder of the playoffs.

"They have all these analysts," said Jackson. "I just wanted to see someone come back to me with statistics: Is 3-point shooting in the playoffs as consistent as it is in the regular season? Does your 3-point-shooting percentage change because you’re in the playoffs? No one figured that one out. And that’s probably me being obtuse to leave it open at the end. But “goink” is one of those New York expressions that we use, and I will tell you this: I learned something. Someone sent me the fact that if you look it up on Urban Dictionary, you’ll find out what it means in today’s society."
