Freeman and the rest of the world that thinks you need to win a title with less talent should run down a alley and yell fish! It makes no sense that statement!
Riley had Jabar, Magic, Worthy, Ewing, Wade and O'neal not a good coach! Red had Russell, Cousy not a good coach! Pop's had Robinson, Duncan, Parker and Manu not a good coach i guess! If I remember correctly which i do, lets count on one hand how many titles Jordan,Pippen, O'neal and Kobe have won when they are not on a Phil Jackson coached team. lets see ONE! Even the teams that won it all like Detriot and Houston in they last 25 years. Houston, Rudy had Cylde the Glide and the Dream. Currently my sister could take the Pistons to the Eastern confernce championship. With Rip, Wallace, Hamilton and Prince 3 different coaches Carlislie, Brown and Flip has rose to the task. In the late 80's Daly had Thomas, Dumars and Rodman. So when you look at great coaches it goes hand in hand with great players!
Do you think Bill wins 3 superbowls with Bledsoe? Does the Dallas Cowboys win 2 superbowls with Babe Laugfenberg? I guess Phil Jackson has been blessed with some gifted stars but without Phil maybe we consider Mj more like a Wilkins just a high flying hard nose talented player that could never get past the 1st round. Much like we consider T-mac nowadays. Give credit to the Zen master Kobe has stated for years that he is out if they dont change things but yet here is Kobe playing for a title. I think anyother coach buckles under the star pressure and gets fired! Ask the Van gundys how that works! In the Nba the Stars rule how the game is called and how the organziation makes decisions accept in the case of Phil jackson teams!
