    You have it backwards

    It's really hard to win with Phil - it requires MJ or Shaq/Kobe

    Otherwise, it's a flop every other time it's been used - Ask Melo

    And I have another one for you:

    rings without a lethal closer at 2nd option that commanded doubles:

    Bron - 0
    MJ - 6

    You can't even say anything positive about Pippen without 3ball having a brain aneurysm

    MJ was the goat candidate, while Phil was a nobody first-time coach in 1990 and 1991 when they won their first title

    NOBODY thought anything of Phil in 1991... Or 1992 for that matter - MJ won him those rings.. ur just a fool for saying some different shit 30 years later..

    Phil was really fortunate that MJ's skillset was good enough to put the triangle on the map.. if MJ's skillset was CP3/Lebron-level, Phil wouldn't have even considered the triangle and would've instituted a more ball-dominant offense with lower ceiling and lower potential for role players to excel

    Your "how many titles without Phil" logic wouldn't graduate high school son

    Mj Kobe Shaq trio won total of 1 championship without Phil. That's hilarious.

    if MJ's skillset was CP3/Lebron-level (ball-dominant), Phil wouldn't have even considered the triangle, and would've instituted a more ball-dominant offense with lower ceiling and lower potential for role players to excel

    In other words, there'd be no triangle if Phil takes over a team with lebron in it instead of Jordan

    So no 11 rings

    11 rings was a function of the best offense/mechanism for spacing at the time (triangle), coupled with players that had sufficiently high skillsets (off-ball, post) to execute the requirements of the offense (continuous post entries, off-ball movement and ball movement)

    So it's a good thing Phil had the 3 players with the highest offensive ceilings of the modern era... Anything less, such as a lower-caliber, ball-dominant skillset, wouldn't win shit with Phil

    You do realize Phil had all those players throughout their best years? Of course they won all their titles with him. You expect Kobe to win one at age 17-19? You expect Shaq to take a roster to a championship in his mid-30s? You expect Jordan to win one in the 80s or on the Wizards?
