Basketball Phil Jackson: Best coach in NBA history?

[GotGibson?]

The man now has 10 rings. All as a coach. Is he now the best coach in NBA history?

 

[bhelser]

Even with the 2 he got in the CBA on top of the 10 in the NBA........in a word "NO"

 

[orangejello727]

Yes he is!!

 

[ac-n-mike]

IF by "best" you mean most accomplished, highest paid, etc...

YES


if you mean IF I could go through the history of the NBA and take ANY coach EVER and have them be MY coach for MY team? not sure....

BUT, IF we were talking in ALL of basketball and NOT just the NBA, I take John Wooden HANDS DOWN over any other coch EVER
