I've said all along, PJ is about as overrated a coach as you will find. Tex and the assistants, coupled with coaching teams with great superstars, is what's won PJ 9 titles. Put him on a team with scrubs, and they fail miserably. He's not a Larry Brown type coach where he can get the most out of his talent. He's just good at meshing egos and surrounding himself with solid basketball minds.
The rings and all that credit should go to Tex Winter and the basketball minds. PJ gets credit for preventing superstar meltdowns.The Assassin wrote:Roofer wrote:This will get no argument from me.

All I have to say is how many rings did Jordan win before Phil became coach?
How many rings did Shaq and Kobe have before kobe became coach?
BTW he HAS a team with scrubs sans Kobe,and they are competitive are they not?
You could say the same about Pat Riley then. He already had Magic,Kareem and Co when he took over,he already had Ewing in NY.
Phil doesnt get enough credit IMHO.

He got em to the conference finals and was a game away from going back to the NBA finals.
