I personally feel Jackson gets a little too much credit as a coach yeah he's good but I think Riley is better. Jackson just has had Jordan and Pippen, and Shaq, and Kobe. Riley on the other hand has done a lot with teams that weren't stocked. Jordan probably would have won 6 rings with any good coach.
I also think Jackson has done a terrible job working out his team's chemistry problems by writing a book to capitalize on Kobe then turn around and coach him and now he's bashing Shaq too. It's like he thinks he's God because he coached Jordan. Not only that but why won't he let Kobe win the scoring race this year he always let Jordan. I don't like Jackson or how he coaches the Lakers and their winning record doesn't really impress me because they have the best player in the NBA, Odom, and the #1 Draft Pick. In fact I feel Riley could have done more with this team in the past 2 years.

I agree that Phil Jackson is totally overrated, I mean I could coach Shaq and Kobe to a championship. I don't know if I would say Riley either b/c Kareem and Magic was not bad tandem either. I would say Red Auerbach b/c regardless of his the talent he had on the team , 8 straight championships is an untouchable feat that we may never see again in this lifetime.

particular is. human beings evaluate his wins to pink and say No his not the perfect. yet I study an recommendations-blowing article that touched on the point of in pink's time there have been less than 10-12 communities taking section in and the elite gamers stood out, its no ask your self than pink might want to win all those Finals. quickly ahead to precise this second and also you've were given Dozens of communities and the gamers precise this second are much better than those of the previous. So definite- Phil is the finest of this era- and a very solid probability that his the finest of all Time. If we may be able to p.c.. Tennis participant,football gamers,Chess gamers as " best of all time" we particular can p.c.. Basketball Coaches as " best of all time" and for me Phil is it.

I can't stand Phil Jackson, the "zen master" yeah right a budhist would probably fight that self centerd, arrogant, yoga master. Red is a lock for best NBA coach to this point. Red would've won with LA's little dream team that Detroit shanked. Popovich is my favorite but the nod goes to RED-RIP.

TO DR. BASKETBALL - IN THE PROS YOU MUST HAVE GOOD/GREAT PLAYERS. ALL THREE OF THESE COACHES HAD GREAT PLAYERS. CHECK THE RECORD AND YOU WILL SEE THAT THIS CORRECT.
