In other news, the basketball arena in Washington DC has the summer off as per usual and therefore more room for concerts. There’s some egregiously long U2 line control system implemented outside of it right now filled with almost exclusively teenage girls.
I don’t know where else to post this.

Wow. Must’ve been 300-400 lined up at 11. Can’t imagine where it’s at now.
Anyways. Back to the basketballs.

He’s been living off one championship 3 great players got him. Same way Phil Jackson is lost over rated cosch of all time. Sports are dumb.
Doc's a great coach. his post-season collapses are troubling - but at the same time? his main stars during this time are all charmin soft come playoff time... Paul, Harden, Embiid.
Embiid disappearing whenever things get tough is not Doc Rivers' fault - even though he will take the blame for it.

Right, because winning one championship is the same as having the record for the most.
Also worth noting that great players or not, managing their personalities and morale is a necessary and important coaching skill that some are better at than others.

I'd actually be ok with Doc Rivers in Milwaukee. Monty too. Don't know if I really want a new to head coaching kind of guy.
Bucks also need some youth too. Love Middleton but I'm fine with him walking. Not sure who we could even think of replacing him with though.

Phil Jackson was an amazing manager of egos. Tex Winter was the brains behind the triangle.
that he relied upon someone else to be his key x's and o's guy does not take away from his greatness as a coach.
yes - he coached legends. you don't win 11 rings by just being a sideline decoration.
his awfulness as a GM doesn't take away from what he did as a coach.

Smeagol already has the Spurs' envelope in the freezer.
My point is you get credit when you have great players for being a great coach and In nba that’s really stupid.
I grew up in Boston a huge Michael Jordan fan. And I thought the same thing. But also a Brady guy. And watching bill look average without him proves the point.
A lot of people could do what Phil did with Michael and Kobe as those 2 guys did 99% of the work without being told.
I’m just doing sports talk now as this things will never be answered.
the issue, of course, is that Doug Collins and Del Harris didn't win with Michael, Shaq and Kobe.
Yes, you have to wait for Michael and Kobe to play 4 years to hit their prime...
Can I ask a random side question... do you think Kobe was more important than Shaq to those first three titles?
I hate Kobe and think he’s overrated. I think Shaq and gasol won him 4
Titles.
That is the correct answer. You win.

We've been here before. He'll be back in an NBA guernsey in no time for a team that needs someone tough and physical.
The ghost of David Stern is going to have the knicks win it even though they aren't one of the teams...
I'm cheering for him to go to a fan base that has been through hell, so Portland or DC.
Dallas doesn't deserve a shot.
OKC would be amazing to watch with him and last year's lanky white kid who got hurt all year whose name I can't remember and refuse to google.
