You also need the right coach. It's been a LONG time since a team won a title without a great coach.

A lot of teams have all 5 of those things and don't win.

OTOH, Miami won two titles without number 5 on the list.

You don't need an elite defender who can hit the 3. Tony Allen couldn't.

Not a homer, folks.
I'm not a homer, a homer is a person who can't side with reason when it comes to their team. On what occasion haven't I sided with reason? I'm not a dummy fam. nikkas accuse me of being a home have to back it up with something, the only time I ever jumped out the window was last year saying Klay would have a better season than Kobe.

That was blasphemous and I deserved every neg I got for thinking Kobe was done. Besides that there's been no homerism, I go hard for my squad as you all should. If everyone was as passionate and knowledgeable about their team as I am the Coli would be a much better place.

When he was surrounded by number 2-5 on that list is when.

you pretty much have to go all the way back to Jordan for this.....and he's the only one i can think of.

Rich Carlisle is a great coach?

great is pretty subjective....i think...take spoelstra for instance....would you say hes a great coach? maybe maybe not....

but what if the heat win 1 or 2 more chips (which is very possible)....that puts him in a category with only a few other coaches....some that are most definitely great.... so would he then be a great coach?
