We saw what happened when Bill Russell left the Celtics/Red Auerbach cocoon. Going from two titles in three years as player/coach (i.e.-more responsibilities than a regular coach) to around a .500 record with the SuperSonics as a coach, and a disaster of a season with the Kings. I hate saying it, b...

By that same logic, Bill Russell won with Red (as coach and then GM). He hasn't really won anywhere else (college and HS don't matter here). :arnold: :D Actually, that's not true. Russell was player coach his last 3 seasons and won 2 rings coaching himself. I know that. Was Red not the GM of those ...

They will once Cohen does it with Soto next winter. Yea there's no chance every team isn't trying to do this with every big FA moving forward. Whether the player wants to do it is another question. It's irresponsible not to try though given it seems like a huge advantage. Although I must admit I do...

The issue with Belichick maybe the same as Reid in his last days, too many responsibilities. When Reid came to KC he just coached and what do you know he looked like the old Reid. Bill won with Brady. He hasn't really won with anyone else. No need to make it more complicated than that. By that same...

I find it amusing that you trash "made up stats". They are great stats that you just don't have the capacity to understand. I understand that they are a "guess" and not a fact , like raw stats... and here's a newsflash for you, bush, rob and others: Jordan also ranks among the v...

I wonder how Phil would fare now? His offense seems antiquated in a 3 point shooting era, but somehow I think he would figure it out.

You aren't a hoops fan Artie. You are a myopic little twit.

Not trying to make excuses for Pops, but maybe the develop of players have passed him by. Or really, he just never had to deal with it. The two generational talents he had - DRob & Duncan - stayed in college all 4 years. Now his prized possession is 19. So for the next 4 years what he didn't ha...

Pops will have them in the playoffs within a few years. That's a pretty low bar, do you think they have any greater ambitions? Steps. The roster is basically G league right now outside of Wemby. And Wemby is raw as hell, and despite some pretty headline stats, still not a real offensive contributor...

Bill is on a one game winning streak. I'm not liking his chances of making it a 2 game winning streak.

Stop being silly, bush-league... Yes, there's a handful of guys in today's NBA who are BOTH mentally/physically tough AND skilled enough to thrive in the 80's/90's. Giannis is one of them. Buuuut then again, to my knowledge Giannis has never been on the receiving end of a Bill Laimbeer clothsline a...

Also, the article is about weakness due to consumer spending to which it is particularly susceptible for obvious reasons.

Masochism?

No way my Magic lose to the Pistons fatso.
