I never said I didnt like Kerr. He's a former Bull, I got love for him. I also stated that he was a good coach. So stop making stuff up.
The topic of this thread is
whether or not Kerr deserved the Coach of the year award. LBJ said he didnt. I agreed. Then I stated the reasons why.
Did Phil and Pop have great players on their teams? Yes. But imho, both of them GREW into great coaches through trail and error. While Duncan, MJ etc grew into HOF players....Phil and Pop grew with them. Im giving props to coaches who I feel put in work, youre giving props to coaches who fall into perfect situations at the opportune
time.
You all keep comparing apples
(2 year stints) to oranges
(hard fought legacies). When you start breaking things down, and proving how the comparisons make no sense, then thats when people call you a hater, blah blah blah.
Its not Steph and Kerr fault that MJ had a tough time with the Pistons. I understand that. But im not gonna play the "media game" and give TOO MUCH props for something that came easy. I cant do it . My apologies.
