Spoelstra didn't, neither Ty Lue (the way the Clippers are this season at least). And that's the thing, although the players are more important than the coach sometimes, because they are the ones playing, they're almost nothing without a great coach who knows how to control egos and isn't afraid of the players.

    Red not only had 9, which he not only coached but also built, he handed the team over to Bill Russell for two more. Then built the teams that won multiple championships in both the 70’s and 80’s. He played the first black player, the first black starting five, and made Bill Russell the first black (player) coach. He drafted Larry Bird the year before he was eligible so he could sign him when he was, five days before the next draft. With serious respect for Phil Jackson’s accomplishments, Red was the greatest.

Collins wanted the ball in Michael's hand at all times. Krause brought Tex there, wanted them to run a more well rounded offense. It's one area where I do believe Krause doesn't get enough credit for.

Kerr has a lot less history than some of the other coaches, but he's shown some resilience in the last two years with the Warriors, and seems well positioned for adding to his resume to the future. His inclusion has a little bit of anticipation with it like including Shaq in the original best 50 players list.

They did it in a game to the Lakers in the Finals, which is still a Lakers record for least points scored in a playoff game. The Pistons won 3 games by double digits, the other game by 8 points, and the game they lost, game 2, Kobe had to hit a 3 in the last seconds to send it to OT. I think you need to go back and rewatch the series and it will be quite evident that Detroit with Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, Tayshaun Prince, Rip Hamilton, and Chauncey Billups, led by the HOF coach Larry Brown dominated Shaq, Kobe, Gary Payton, Karl Malone, and Phil Jackson to win the 2004 NBA World Championship.

In 2003 most of the core of the team was just put together, and they got swept in the ECF by the Nets, who went to two straight NBA Finals and lost both times. Rasheed Wallace was acquired at the trade deadline in 04' and that put the Pistons over the top to win in the playoffs and the 04' NBA Championship. In 05' they defended their Crown in the Finals, losing in game 7 at San Antonio, which was Duncan's third, and Parker's and Mau's second. If Sheed doesn't leave Horry wide open on the wing to knock down the three in game 5, maybe the Pistons go Back-to-back, but it didn't happen. In 06' they faced a Miami Heat team with Shaq and D Wade and lost in 6 games to them in the ECF. The Heat went on to win the NBA Championship. No shame in that. The big mistake in the 06' offseason was Dumars not paying Ben Wallace the extra $10 Million dollars in free agency, and Ben signed with the Bulls. No Ben Wallace patrolling the paint in the 07' and 08' ECF's means no real shot at winning another NBA Championship. They lost in 6 games both times.
      The Detroit Pistons didn't have a super star, they weren't a super team, they just had a collection of "Dogs" that played really good basketball together and played amazing team defense for a handful of seasons. The national media doesn't hype the 2004 team, they don't get mentioned like other champions do. They get overlooked because what they did wasn't sexy. I'm fine with that, because nobody can ever take away what they accomplished, an NBA World Championship.

    I guess now we can stop saying Lebron never had an All time Coach.

      Noone ever disregards how great Spoelstra was. My god get LeBron out of your head for once and just appreciate the list

      @@King-mf3wh Yes, they do. They never mention Spo. They just say LBJ never had a great coach and leave it at that. They also seem to forget that he lost for Team USA with 2 of the coaches on this list (Larry Brown & Gregg Popovich) and he also lost with Coach K.

    Why is Doc Rivers on this list ? Why is he considered better coach than others who won only 1 title as he did ?
    He had good coaching years between 2008-2010, but what has he achieved after that ?

    I can't believe that a guy who blew up multiple 3-1 lead is one of the greatest coach🤔🤔

    Doc shouldn't be up there. Rick Carlisle is a better coach than he is.
