Right now who is the best coach in the league?

[ghost!]

just stop...

mad cuz i make sense right...yeah i know

 

[ghost!]

I'm not going to waste my energy on a Boston native anymore.

I already said I agreed that greats players and coaches go together. Doc just wasn't shit until he got a few. Nothing wrong with that. But one of the best... after sub-par seasons with the Magic.... Negative.

Niggas throwing around the word elite like breadcrumbs.

stop using that as an excuse..i dropped knowledge and back'd up my examples..plan n simple..u give doc some praises but not enough cuz he had HOFers...so again i ask what was pat riley when he had magic and the rest..how about when he went to miami and had wade n shaq...did u notice that he only one titles with those teams....never won one with the knicks nor won anymore after shaq left....thankx its knowledge i know.

and u tell me would phil jackson or pop have done better with the magic team doc rivers had that year? i'll wait for this answer

 

[GrizTitan]

Lionel Hollins. Grizzlies might fuck around and be 5th place in the West. Have beaten EVERY elite team in the NBA.

 

[NCswag]

You're not serious

And im going go with Nate McMillan although i am biased

Those cancel each other out, sir.

Dropping knowledge? Don't flatter yourself. I said that because I'm not the type of person to argue in circles with someone who is a homer, because the argument will never end. That's what I was getting at. Never was I bailing out, I just have better shit to do.

And when it comes to Riley, I never was a huge Riley fan. So we agree on that. But even though he didn't win a ring in NY, he still got to the Finals, and he had some 60 win seasons with the Heat of the 90s. Doc's other team won a max of 45 games and didn't leave the first round. So if you take Doc away from Boston and Riley away from the Lakers and the Wade/Shaq Heat team, Riley's resume is still clearly over Doc's. And if you say it isn't you're out of your damn mind. You're trying to discredit what Riley did when he wasn't with his better teams, but you want to give Doc props for his Magic run? No..

You're trying to name Doc elite for 3 1/2 years of work, when his resume is closer to 10 years. You're just disregarding the longer half of his coaching career. I'm not mad at what Doc's doing now, I just don't remember him being a hell of a coach before. Phil, Pop and Riley had just as much or more help, but they've had success twice as long and longer. Doc needs to be great a few more years lil homie. I don't how I can explain myself any further. Doc isn't that dude.

And would they have done better with the Magic? My guess is yes. You sound silly as hell trying to make it like they couldn't do a better job. Go watch badminton or something.

dog your posts are dumb... you compared PJ to robert horry and then tried to say what doc rivers has done puts him up there with popovich, riley and jackson.

is doc a good coach... no doubt.

on the same level as 4x champion popovich 6x champion riley and 11x champion jackson???? gtfoh

Knowledge home...dont address me as "lil homie" cuz i been watching ball a long time...it has nothing to do with being a homer cuz i have always thought doc rivers to be a good coach in orl, just like i think bryon scott, and avery johnson are good coaches..Him being in boston has ish to do with it, we talking coaching, leave that homer b.s. to the side...thank you..if you have better ish to do..THEN WHY ARE U STILL REPLYING TO ME???? plz...dont FLATTER YOURSELF...

oh my god..really doc rivers can't compare to the resumes pat riley, phil jackson and pop has...CUZ HE HASNT COACHED AS LONG AS THEY HAVE..did i not say that tbefore?..have i ever said in this thread that doc is better then any of these coaches??..i'm saying same platform inwhich you are judging those coaches on..i gave you examples of doc in those situations..we all agree these coaches had great players to coach...so did doc. (check) these coaches had to balance attitudes and superstars...so did doc check...., Xo's and Os (check) the only difference is.....doc hasnt coach long enough compare to the others...and they were brought in as my examples not to say doc was better but to show u those top coaches --coached great teams and hofers.....JSUT LIKE DOC

someone form his coaching branch is doing a good job in coaching in chicago, another way to judge how talented a coach is....stop being hung up on that "elite" b.s. HE'S ONE OF THE BETTER COACHES..since phil, pop or riley didnt have a team as bad as orl....u can just flat out say doc is not a good coach cuz of that

u do realize coaches get axes at times unfarely right...he had ish in orl...no otther coach would of done any diff. b.s. u trying to tell me phil jackson would of done better..how do you know..all he had was great teams to coach.

stick to what i post..not basing anything off of what he did in boston soley. ..again coaches get axe unfairly when things dont go right, and that's doesnt mean they are a bad coaches.....he had nothing in orlando, who was he going to take to the finals in orlando??? really again pat riley (and i'm not going against riley or saying doc is better then riley) riley got his praises from the great teams he coach'd..nobody pay attention until after a coach wins a title

bryon scotts a good coach..but nobody is paying attention until he wins a ring to know that...i pay attention to the x's and o's..nba t.v. showcases that part of a coach alot...

the f you hear me say anything about PJ brown and robert horry..get your posters correct! and get the "elite" ish off your friggin brain...he's one of the better coaches in the league...pop and phil jackson had great teams to coach..won titles with great teams..most great coaches do..the only difference is....doc hasnt coached long enough

i can't say it any clearly to you....ONE OF THE BETTER COACHES....

 

[A$AP_A$TON]

Yall goin hard in here

 

[texas409]

Coach Pop is the greatest head coach of the past 20 years

GO SPURS GO

even though you a pussy i gotta cosign

if you aint saying Pop is the best you havent been watching basketball since Jordan retired

PJ=phil jackson. im sure no one is thinkin about pj brown

and you right,wrong poster, my bad...its just that a lot of you jackasses say similar shit

but back to the point... know you tryin to back off your claim that doc "belong in the same sentence" as PJ, and pop when the facts of the matter is he dont.

i mean this IS YOU right? im not getting the wrong poster here am i? this is your dumb ass quote.

my point..is what doc did was enough to be put in the same sentence with pop and phil the only difference is he hasnt coach as long as them...

PJ and pop are elite coaches... you said doc belongs with them... meaning you think he's elite. i mean that would be a reasonable assessment of your claim right?

now you sayin that you didnt mean elite. he's either an elite coach on their level or he aint. which is it?

we already know the answer, but indulge me anyway.

posters threw names together in the list (in no order) pop, phil, and doc were mention.

i'm saying he is one of the better coaches...anot the best but one of the better coaches.(i do think he is a better X's and O's coach then phil jackson).i'm not saying doc rivers is better then them..but right now for the past few years he is one of the better coaches..thats' all i'm saying...i have said it over and over again..he cant compare to phil and pop CUZ HE HADNT COACH LONG ENOUGH NOR HAS THE RESUME again for the 10000 time i said that.

but for recent history he is looked at around the league as one of the better coaches..thats' what i'm talking about..why do i care what other posters view on him is like that???..i'm just saying he is viewed as one of the better coaches in the league..now this is me repeating myself again since u didnt read me saying that before..apparently

and i even said i think jerry solan could be better then all of them...

phil jackson first 8 years with the bulls... 6 rings. first 3 years with the lakers... 3straight.

pop first 10 years 3 rings

doc rivers first 12 years... 1 ring.

still no comparison even if pop and PJ retire tomorrow and doc wins the 3 next 5 championships. pop and PJ accomplished more in a shorter time span.

and jerry sloan being better than any of them is even more laughable

i'm think you are retarded for real..im done with you..it's like talking to a female who done know how to listen...

and PS:

you all frustrated and flustered

YOU the one who said what doc has done so far puts him on the level of pop and PJ.

YOU said that dumb shit.

i just showed your remedial ass why that was false

 

[b*braze]

u dont make sense....chi-town phil jackosn took over doug collins team..and if you watch'd then during the piston vs bulls ECFs runs u knew they were(the bulls) a season away from over taken the pistons..tommy would of tell you that....and pop too...they had superstars..how u gonna say they took teams over the hump but doc didnt do that when he took a first year assemble team to the finals?? and won plus handing A PHIL JACKSON lead team to the one of th e worst finals ass whippin in history??

yea cuz first year teams always win championships right? Yup the heat are doing fine, the first year shaq and kobe got together they did fine, how about the nuggets when a.i. first got there, or when billups got there....or the time the lakers got g.peyton and karl malone..my point..is what doc did was enough to be put in the same sentence with pop and phil the only difference is he hasnt coach as long as them...

smh you given pop props and u admitt to him always having a good team, also with phil jackson ..but doc doesnt get props for taken the very first

super team" so to speak over the hump when everyone outside of boston didnt think they were gonna win a championship that year?

smh..and like i said...a coaching branch off of doc rivers is in the league now doing a great job as head coach for coach..how many coaches off of phil jackson's (for example) branch is doing that?

this is you.

no edits or nothin. you wrote this

who are you top 5 coaches in the nba RIGHT NOW?

since explaining myself thoroughly aint doing it....i swear you dont know how to comprehend sentences..i love how you put in bold what i said but leave out other parts of my post that pretty much explains my position...there's nothing remedial about what i said..you just choose to respond to what you wanna respond to.

hell muthafuckin nawwww....

meaning he should be mention as one of the better coaches in the league...for all reasons i listed...all these great coaches in the league..have great plyers..
