After hearing Kobe say he would have 12 if Shaq stayed in shape I thought about what if for other players and how it could of changed NBA history. What if LeBron had a atg coach like every other atg player. How many more rings would have.? What if penny never goat hurt and him and Shaq stayed together. How many would they have got? What if Len bias and Reggie Lewis never died how many chips do they get and how many does bird end up with? What if mj didn't retire the first 2 times. How many does he end up with? Would end up with 8 or 9 or Would the Celtics with bias, Lewis and a veteran bird with a good back be to much causing mj to only get 1 or 2?

What do you think? Oh and I think Bron gets 5 or 6 easily if he has a atg coach

LeBron was arguably at his best when he played in a good system in Miami. So I imagine having a legendary coach throughout his career would be very positive for him.

It depends on the coach.

I could see Lebron flourish under someone...like Larry Brown. LB coached Iverson and helped mask A LOT of his deficiencies. Don't see why he couldn't do that with a better player in Lebron.

Not sure about Popovich. Or Phil. Sure Lebron would have success. How many more titles though? It'd require Lebron to make sacrifices to his brand AKA stats. Would be good television either way.

Exactly.


He simply would not do it.....he would pout, throw a tantrum and collude somewhere else

The proper question is how many coaches would be considered atg if lebron won more rings?

What if the Pistons has the #1 pick in 2003? They were #2.

Not possible, he's racist against atg caliber coaches like PJ, Pat Riley, Gregg Popovich, Jerry Sloan....

Bran would never let a coach get in the way of his stats. Would have Phil/Pop shipped out midway into their 2nd year.

Phil and Bran are not compatible. Their beef is well documented. So that's a non-starter.

Pop would make him a slave to his system. Bran's all about his ego stats. He ain't Duncan. Also a non-starter.

Has every white coach that's coached him fired. Almost had Spoelstra (mixed) fired as well if Riley had budged.

Bran stans continue to be deluded about the man they preach and svck c0ck for.

Amazing phenomena for sure.

Pop made adjustments to deal with Aldridge. Did the same with Ginobli. That's part of what makes him a great coach. He finds ways to adjust to his talent.

And the way he could have adjusted for Lebron in 2011 would have been to put his ass on the bench.

The Larry Brown Pistons with Wade instead of RIP would win 6 straight titles. It would be overkill. Wade by 2006 developed into a top 2-3 perimeter defender and a top 2-3 offensive player at the same time. He had a top 10 peak all time.

Add that the Pistons and they'd be sweeping everyone in sight.

He would veto is. He loves playing his own system to maximize stats. If. Phil Jackson or Pop told him to play off ball, he would attempt to get them fired. As usual.

Silly proposal since he gets (or tries) to get all his great coaches fired amd has openly beefed with the riley and Phil types.

Its another huge piece of the intangible puzzle that depreciates lebrons all time value.

Probably the same as now, as it would quickly evolve into the timeline we already know by him having the ATG coach fired for trying to make him do things he doesn't wanna do for the overall betterment of the team

Yet MJ's on record saying numerous times he wouldn't play for any other coach but Phil.

Why would he say that if the coach doesn't matter? Was it because Phil was MJ's puppet and put up with his shit while other coaches wouldn't??

True. Lebron also lost in the 2nd round in 2010 with a top 10 GOAT.

Perfectly explains his stanhood to LeBum...

It's like a prerequisite, to be a complete hoops moron to Stan that guy...that's why you'll also notice that the dumbest talkingheads like Wright, Cowherd, Sharpe, Hollins etc, stan the guy...the dumber you are, the more likely you're a LeStan :oldlol:

Correct. There is a direct correlation between low IQ and stanning lebron on this board.

This is certain. :lol
