Do you really not like the Lakers milo? Kobe or Phil?

Well, there are still some of the same feelings left over from the Blazers-Lakers rivalry of a few years ago. But it's also an equal part of the media being all to ready to sing the praises of Phil Jackson. I have felt for years that the vast majority of his success has been due to the talent his front offices got for him in Chicago and Los Angeles.

You don't have to explain, I was just surprised we both dislike them. I can't stand Kobe, Phil, or the Lakers.

I love it. Kobe = Prima donna and Phil Jackson = most overrated coach in NBA history.

Phil did an awfully good job the year after Jordan retired. Do I think he gets too much credit? Yes. Is he a very good coach? Absolutely.

I never said he wasn't good. But he doesn't walk on water like so many sports writers and Lakers fans seem to believe.

Most overrated isn't exactly high praise. Don Nelson was far more overrated than Phil.

Yeah, I'd say he's done so so with the Clippers.

He will eventually drive the Clips into the ground, the same as with the Lakers, Bucks, and Blazers. I'm confident he has pictures of some NBA owners. That's the only explanation for his continued ability to find employment.

Whitsitt and the rest of the front office are the ones primarily responsible for running the Blazers into the ground. Not Dunleavy. The front office remains, Dunleavy is gone and the Blazers are still one of the worst 3-4 teams in the NBA, and have easily the worst reputation.

Whitsitt blew it when he kowtowed to the fans and tried to "clean the organization up." The trading of Isaiah Rider and Jim Jackson robbed them of their swagger. They went from a rising power to just another team.

I think Phil Jackson is a good coach as well.Of course I'm bias since my sis lives in LA and sent me a Lakers T-shirt the last championship game they won.

I gotta go with Shaq and the Heat....Shaq showed a lotta heart in the last game, more than I thought he had. I don't believe Dallas can win more 2 games on Miami.

Losing 3 games is hard to overcome but Dallas has been lobbying about fair officiating so the calls toinight could go their way.

Or not. Cuban just got slapped with a $250,000 fine by the NBA.

That's the equivalent of a speeding ticket to the average American. Stern is never going to muzzle Cuban by going after him financially.

Actually, you've called him "mediocre" in this thread.

i think that if cuban and avery johnson and dirk or whoever else don't quit whining and pouting about a timeout call or a foul call, they don't have a dang chance at winning
The Heat aren't going to have any pity for them, so they need to nut up and forget about that game if they wanna have a shot
