Knicks President Phil Jackson was expecting a decision from Carmelo Anthony on Thursday. "But I expected one yesterday and the day before yesterday," Jackson said. "But no, were waiting." And hoping. Jackson said he was still expecting good news, although he said he hadnt heard from Anthony since meeting with him a week earlier. Speaking to reporters at the Knicks summer league practice in Las Vegas, Jackson said he has texted Anthony a couple of times since then, but hasnt gotten a response. But he felt confident about keeping the All-Star forward after their last discussion. "I felt really good about my conversation with Carmelo. We really struck a chord," Jackson said. "The two of us, I think feel really passionately about what were trying to get accomplished. Its his ability to stay, be patient, lead and watch us develop a winner." The Knicks offered Anthony a maximum level contract, worth nearly $130 million over five years, at their meeting in Los Angeles. Anthony had previously met with Chicago, Houston, Dallas and the Lakers. Jackson added that he had made perhaps five contract proposals to Anthony. He has said he hopes the NBAs leading scorer in 2012-13 would be open to taking less than the max to allow for more future spending flexibility. Jackson also confirmed that he had reached out to one of his former players, Pau Gasol. The Lakers star is a free agent and Jackson is interested, even while acknowledging the Knicks have far less money to offer than Gasol is worth. But Jackson is trying to pitch him on the value of being in New York, even noting the importance to the Spaniard of being in the same city as the United Nations. "He knows what he has here and what is possible and I think hed like to play with Carmelo and I think hed like to play for a winner," Jackson said. "And we cant guarantee that but with him, wed guarantee a much better chance."

NASCAR announced its decision Thursday against Parrott, who works for Richard Petty Motorsports. The substance was not identified. "We have an expectation of all RPM employees to conduct themselves at the highest level of professionalism and within the competitive confines as set forth by NASCAR," said Sammy Johns, RPMs vice-president of operations and competition. "We are very disappointed that one of our employees did not meet our expectations and we completely support NASCAR, their policies and final decisions when it comes to the substance abuse policy." Johns will handle crew chief duties for the No. 43 Ford this weekend at Talladega and until further notice. Parrott was the longtime crew chief for Halll of Fame driver Dale Jarrett when Jarrett was at Robert Yates Racing.dddddddddddd. He guided him to two Daytona 500 victories, in 1996 and 2000, and wins at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 1996 and 1999. The duo also paired to win the 1999 Cup championship. Parrott also developed many of NASCARs future crew chiefs, including Mike Ford, Jimmy Elledge and younger brother, Brad. The No. 43 car at RPM has never participated in any NASCAR programs affiliated with alcohol, dating back to seven-time champion Richard Pettys days as a driver. Pettys mother made the request, since she was against alcohol and banned substances. As a result, the car doesnt participate in beer-sponsored contingency programs and didnt run in the exhibition opening race of Daytona Speedweeks when it was sponsored by Budweiser. The No. 43 also does not participate in the Coors Lite pole award program in NASCAR. ' ' '
