Coaches are the most over rated and ridiculously paid people in the NBA. Bottom line is this for the most part in the NBA they come up with how they want tempo some plays etc but the players are the only ones that can get it done. Example Phil Jackson making 12 million give me a break. Yes he is a championship calibre coach if there is such a thing but 12 million this really shows what is wrong with the game.

Phil Jackson is what sets the Lakers apart from the Cavs. Coachers are not overrated in the least. I'd rather pay a legendary coach who's arguably the best in the game 12 million than a dime a dozen player like David Lee.

Also, tell the Nuggets that coaches are overrated.

Good coaches make talanted teams great, but good coaches can't make a bad team good. For example it doesnt matter who is coaching the nets or warriors they aren't gonna do much, but for a team like the lakers phil definetly makes them better, and as for the cavs mike brown arguably makes them worse.

I couldn't agree with this anymore than if I had written it myself.

It should be a good championship series, but i think kobe and pau are too good and the lakers take it in 5 or 6

This is probably the best argument I have heard thus far. and I agree??? But for arguments sake if a coach is great why can't they take a bad team and make them great. Phil Jackson has never won a championship nor coached anywhere without superstar stud players. Did he make them great or did they make him appear great. Hard to tell.

Phil Jackson, though he has never coached a tam full of bad players, is the oil on the teams he has coached. Think about the level of egos he's had to put up with and consider how those teams have performed with him as their coach. Can you imagine the Lakers and the Bulls, two teams with such high levels of egomaniacal bastards being able to put aside their egos on the court with any other coach besides Phil? I'm not sure of his ability to take a bad team and make them better but there is no denying that without Phil Jackson on the Bulls or the Lakers that we would be talking about these two teams to this day with the level of respect we give them.
