Re: Phil Jackson
[ QUOTE ]
Also, I don't think 'lots' of teams have had 2 superstars the calibre of jordan/pippen and shaq/kobe. Jordan and Shaq are frequently argued as the #1 and #2 best players of all time.

I don't know whether Phil is a good coach, but he had Jordan forever and when Jordan was gone they sucked.
However, how many championships did Shaq win before Phil? Zero.
So I don't think you can say "oh he had Shaq and Jordan." We have no evidence about what would have happened to Jordan in his prime (his time with Washington doesn't count) and Shaq in his prime DIDN'T win a championship without Phil.
