side bet $100 on this?![]()
Im an idiot who can't count
Hah, wish I had enough to bet. My luck sucks anyways.
As much as I find racist jokes hilarious, the whole "Pop better beat a black coach" talk is kinda ridiculous. lol
This.
As good as Duncan has been the gap between Lebron and Timmy is so wide ... I dont see how even a vintage performance by Manu and a earlier season performance by Parker would even be enough. YOu guys are hyping KL but he will be in foul trouble all series forcing you to double James ... and Ray, Battier Chalmers will bury you from 3. you guys run with the Heat that will be murder and your wings will be in foul trouble all series long.
Heat in 5 most likely 6 if they come out flat ...
Oh and dont count out Grizz OKC wiil have to hit their 3's... consistently to beat Grizz.
It's really not.... black coaches all ing suck for some reason, they all rely on their assistants to do the actual coaching while they do ty motivational speeches.... and I'm not being racist, I'd be perfectly happy to see a black coach who actually knows how to draw up a play make it in the league, I think Brian Shaw has a good chance of being that kind of coach....
So Kc Jones, Doc Rivers and Lenny Wilkens were ty coaches?
Mark Jackson isn't a bad coach IMO . Him , Lionel and Doc are all decent ever other black coach is trash except for maybe Larry Drew . But honestly some white coaches are overrated piece of shietttt like Scotty Brooks and George Karl
Doc Rivers is questionable, he was thisclose to being fired before the KG and Ray trades and was generally thought of as a horrible X's and O's coach.... as for Lenny Wilkens and KC Jones, I'm talking about today's coaches, not the old heads from back in the day...
I often wonder about those mic'd up or live wire or those whatever they call em segments..the coaches can't be as dumb as they sound on those, I assume they cut out the technical parts where they talk about hedging screen and rolls and defensive rotations..It's always "play defense" "it takes five" "pass the ball" "the ball finds energy" (lol D'Antoni) etc.
doc is from the ty motivational "line" ...
And I thought he sucked too ...
But his in-bounds plays are good ...(when he has scorers)
And the defense stayed strong when Thibs left ...
I say good not great coach ...but better than most white or black.
The league actually doesn't allow the actual X's and O's tactical stuff to be broadcast on those segments, so yeah, all anyone gets to hear are pla udes.... you can still tell who the really horrible coaches are by who can't even get those right, tbh.... Vinny's favorites were "RUN DA PLAY" "DO IT HARDER" "RUN INTO THINGS" "ATTACK!!! ATTACK!!!"![]()
"It takes five" is my personal fave..Really, you play this game with five people?..thx coach
Must help them when they break the huddle to remember how many of them have to go out on the court tho..so has its positives..
Ill do another $150 to make it an even $500 for you on that bet tbh. Heatles will be the favorites but Ill back my Espurs.
$5 on Nick Collison and Z-Bo getting into at least three fights. Ballin on a budget over here.
KC Jones was widely considered to be a ty coach, tbh..Bill Simmons has mentioned it many times how Jones was considered the biggest liability on those Celtics contending teams in the 80s..
Doc Rivers made 2 Finals with Thibodeau, he hasn't done anything notable in his career without him, tbh..
Lenny Wilkins is nothing special, obviously..
Out of the 30 NBA coaches every year, only 10 or so are competent, and only 5 or so will noticeably improve your team, tbh..if the coach is Black, you're only winning a le under special cir stances, tbh..
If the Spurs make it to the finals... for three fitty ($3.50) I got the Spurs in 7.
Who wants it?
Man's game, son.
Man's game.
Deal.
Deal.
Deal.
