    It's funny how all the great championship NBA coaches have all time great players.

    Then you have the tier of guys who stayed employed a long time, won around 50 games a year, made the playoffs but never won it all. George Karl, Don Nelson types. Is Karl a better coach than Spoelstra? I would think he is.

    Spoelstra is the one that got Lebron to play in the post. That single coaching move is better than everything George Karl ever did.
    It's not like it took a genius to have Lebron play in the post. It was just a matter of time. Even Romar would have eventually done it if he had coached Lebron.
    Anyone with half a brain could see Lebron needed to be in the post. It was getting the best player in the world to do something that he didn't want to do that was the accomplishment. Romar can't control college kids, he wasn't going to get Lebron to do it. Get fucking real.
    Maybe not Romar. But like I said above, any coach with half a brain would have eventually tried to move Lebron to the post.

    Thanks for pointing out the obvious, needle dick.

    Bringing Romar into a conversation about whether or not coaching matters proves that coaching matters.

    Remember when the TWolves were seriously thinking of hiring LoRo a couple years ago? Best decision that franchise has ever made.

    Kerr has such a ridiculous amount of depth to turn to, and he only needs to "adjust" around one fucking player.

    Then he went to David Lee and said, "Hey, this is a championship team so you and a bunch other guys are going to sit the fucking bench with a smile on your face."

    Masterful work.

    Romar would have done fine with the TWolves. They sucked anyway. Maybe Romar would have sucked more and gotten them a better draft pick or two.

    Actually smart decisions by the TWolves :

    1. Drafting KG at a time high school players weren't all the rage.

    2. Wiggins for Love

    That's all I can think of. Their worst decision I can think of is the Joe Smith fiasco. Trading Marbury. The return from Boston in the KG trade. The whole era was a shit show. It's amazing McHale still has a job in the NBA.
