Thanks for posting those.

People who act like Draymond Green is more of a distraction than Dennis Rodman was to the Bulls are completely delusional.

Yet another example of why Phil Jackson was the GOAT head coach.

Not only did he make it work while minimizing the disruption on a team led by egomaniacs, but he was the only coach who was able to get any type of helpful production out of Rodman after he went crazy.

And that was because he was somehow able to get MJ and Pippen to buy in to Rodman (a hated Bad Boy) helping the team win while also not being held subject to the same off court standards everyone else was.

Yea man...there was a reason the DPOY was available for a bag of Fritos.

Dray is an insane person on the court but off it he's doing podcasts and playing NBA analyst.

Rodman was a total distraction off the court and he wouldn't have been back even if Jordan did.

Too accurate right now


Hits too close to home

Gotta think Mazzulla is gone if they don't perform up to par in the playoffs.

The window for this team isn't exactly wide open.

KD and the Suns in the OKC tonight. Shai is doubtful so I don’t expect him to play. Thunder have not lost 3 in a row all season, this could be it.

Nuggets without Murray again, this might be the biggest game Denver loses with how well Minnesota matches up against them.

If Denver wins I see them ending up as the 1 seed, if Denver loses I think they finish 3rd.

I don't have Jackson as my GOAT coach but he's top 4 and this is a big reason why, I agree

Yeah If you wanna argue he’s the most accomplished than than best…that’s fair

Yeah there are like 10 games left, nothing will be settled tonight.

It's no small thing to manage all those superduper stars and get them to play together, especially alphas like Shaq, Kobe, MJ. Steph Curry by contrast is the kind of superstar who's easy to coach. Phil did that, and handled Rodman, and had good instincts and leadership with guys like Tex Winter. He's an all time great coach.

But I give the GOAT edge to Larry Brown for reasons I've gone on at length about. Like all GOAT debates there's no proof or 'right' answer it comes down to personal preference. If someone wants to have Phil or Riley or Pop as their GOAT you can make a case for them too

Pop needs to win without the same core to even be on the same planet as Phil

Pop needs to win without the same core to even be on the same planet as Phil

To sustain that level of excellence over 20 years with a changing and aging cast like he did is also no small thing

If Denver loses they’ve lost the tiebreakers to both Minnesota and OKC, obviously nothing is official, but that’s just where I think they’ll finish.

 

[thunderc]

I don’t know who this guy is that has been wearing Giddeys jersey for the last month but he is in the process of making himself a lot of money.

Well, not going to win games going 5-30 from 3 with 16 turnovers. Yessh.
