Phil Jackson's coaching tree vs. Red Auerbach's
- Thread starter madness
- Start date
Red's chart shows players turned into coaches/GMs
Phils chart just shows his old coaches under him that turned head coaches..
its not even the same criteria..
what were you trying to prove here ?

What point is he tryna prove tho?You know had a hidden agenda for this thread
Lmaooo at the tags!!
thibodeau not being under van gundy thus under riley is a fail. they shoulda just done don nelson, riley and phil for timeliness. plus they left out bill russell for red and steve kerr (phil/pop combined?). just sucks all around.

Im just happy after all the years of being compared to Red, Phil finally has to earn it by putting himself in a situation where he has to build something from the bottom up..

Great thread 
Phil produces, period.
Cant say the same about is assistants.
Meanwhile Riley produces and his assistants produce too. You are supposed to be a reflection of those who raides/trained you. Phil's assistants letting him down

If you think about it, doesn't a successful coaching tree actually take away from the patriarch?
Like if anybody can do it, doesn't that mean your system is responsible for your own success? I could see if said coach was the architect of the system he coached, which Phil Jackson was not. But not just with Phil and Red. I'm looking at it like if the next man can step right in and replace you, then doesn't that mean you're replaceable?
You're supposed to coach players, not coaches. As long as my teams were successful, I couldn't care less about those trying to emulate me. In fact, low key I would probably hope they fail just to show my own greatness.
