He'd not a bad coach, he's just the scapegoat whenever the Heat fail.

YUP

And he's a bit stuck up too with his substitution patterns but i respect the fact that he has his method and sticks to it no matter what

i dont think has a series has ever been less decided by coaching

Just look at the last few coaches to win championships:

Rick Carlisle
Doc Rivers
Phil Jackson

The only one that really stands out is Phil. The NBA is a players league anyways :manny:

this nikka was ONE SEASON away from losing his job.. then the big 3 came and doc became = :krs: not to say he wasnt a good coach.. but he was .. run of the mill.. not a BAD one but not considered anyone you would fire ur current coach for..

doc had a .500 record with darrell armstrong as the leading scorer.

definitely one of the worst, his in game adjustments are putrid... he's lucky he went up against a coach that is even worse than he is, although he thoroughly outcoached Brooks...

Mark Cuban basically said "Spo made zero adjustments in the Finals last year" on First Take the other day, it's rare to hear an owner blatantly shyt on a coach like that

him winning a championship makes him a better coach though, and not just in the eyes of the public... a lot of Spo's problems were not X's and O's, but rather you just got the feeling that the players weren't really buying into what he was saying and he didn't command that level of respect that is usually given to upper echelon coaches... I think him having a ring changes that

Phil only stands out cuz he coached 3 of the five best players of the last 20+ years. Like you say, it's a players league. Don't get me wrong; not saying any idiot could've had the same success as Phil with those squads, but another good coach would have.


doc had a .500 record with darrell armstrong as the leading scorer.

Yup. Got a squad and his true colors shone through. From outcoaching Phil in 08 to taking a far superior Heat team to seven this year.
