Not my argument at all. And, if you had read my earlier posts, you would understand where I'm coming from better.

At the NBA level, most of the head coaches are great coaches. A couple are bad, and a couple are outstanding. But, the vast majority of the head coaches know how to coach and coach well. The difference between good teams and great teams is not coaching but talent of the players. Lawrence Frank and Larry Krystowiak could have led a Shaq and Kobe led Lakers team to multiple championships as long as the players believed in their coaching. Phil Jackson, Gregg Popovich, and Pat Riley could not have led the Milwaukee Bucks or the Memphis Grizzlies to championships over the past decade. You give immense talent good coaching and they accept it, they will win.

Great coaching never outshines greater talent. The main ingredient to championship success is player talent, not outstanding coaching.
