This article is hilarious because Pau NEVER mentions Phil Jackson once - after winning 2 les with him as head coach.

"Baksetball isn't all there is. Pau gets that."

So maybe Pop is the best coach of all time after all? Despite all the ing from Spurstalk.

[Chillen]

Yes, it's amazing how many great coaches Pau has played for just brilliant minds of basketball (Hubie, Phil, Pop, Thibs).

One of these is not like the others.

[Mr. Body]

He doesn't really say Thibs is a great coach; he seems to like the guy but read between the line and you see a cloudier image of him as a coach.

[ElNono]

Damn, he didn't say a thing about Phil when talking about his best coaches... dig?

EDIT: just saw the same thing by OP... dig, IMO

Pop just paid him millions when he sucks. Don’t bite the hand.

Sadly hes better than starting pg sg sf.... and he sucks

[gospursgojas]

Kobe was the coach by then. Phil was in stack my money mode already.

Well, for him to say he's played for some good coaches and then some not so good coaches, and then to specifically name the good ones, while avoiding the mention of the guy with all the hardware, I think his message is pretty clear that he doesn't think a lot of Zen Phil.
