I guess it depends on your perspective. Should Jeff be coaching the team without interference? Is Rambis coaching the triangle in practice and the defense not enough for Phil? Should Phil be scouting college players in March instead of teaching the triangle when he has a coach in place and he put his best friend on the staff as the top assistant?

What if Jeff asked Phil? What if Phil and Jeff were talking and the topic came up and Phil volunteered?

One of the best ****ing coaches of all time and people have a problem with him dipping into practice to run a few sets? What is wrong with this? Are we so jaded?

O.T. Martin did you lose power with the storm? I have been off work the past two days because of the storm. We were without power until about 3:00 pm yesterday.

Im in the city and everything was AOK for me. I know some who lost power for about a day and then on and off for another. I was driving around town yesterday afternoon for errands - big mistake - and there were large areas without stop lights and that absolutely sucked. I think the suburbs were more affected

When I left work on Wednesday my windshield was cracked from something blowing into it. My ride home was pretty nasty. I accidentally drove under a down power line that was sitting on the roof of a big truck. I also saw a good size tree just fall onto the road 200 yards in front of me. I have never experienced anything like it.

OMG holy crap man. Hope everyone is AOK in your household

Put me in the jaded group. Phil is a hof coach but that isn't his job. He is an executive now. The only guy that I can think of that is an exec with tremendous coaching success is Riley. Riley did leave the office and coach. If Phil wants to do that it would be great. But if he doesn't I wish he would focus on being an executive.

Why would you then suggest Phil should be out scouting? Wouldn't that undermine his scouting guys?

You are jaded and it's undermining your observations.

It makes JH look incompetent, like he doesn't know how to teach his own system, oh wait, it's not his system. It's one thing to go behind close doors and teach JH some tips, but to do it in front of the players, that not a good look

As I pointed out above Phil wasn't his own offensive coach when he started with the Bulls. He had Tex Winter coaching the offense. It took years for Phil to learn the Triangle on the level Tex knew it.

For me this is what someone who is insecure says.

Should KP not tell us he wants to work with Hakeem or Dirk cause it was make everyone else around him - his coaches, his brother who teaches him everything - look incompetent?

Everyone, and I mean everyone in life, should always look for help in any way they get it. From their peers, from their boss, from outside the box, from inside the box. It doesn't mean you are incompetent because of it, it means you are smart and are gathering the best to make whatever you are looking to do become better.

Coach K brought in Pop and MDA to help with team USA. He wasn't too proud to accept other top coaches!

We are fine. Thanks. It was crazy on Wednesday.

Sorry to hear but glad to hear that everything is ok

I'm not convinced Jeff wants to coach the triangle.

Yes, he took the job. And yes, being around Phil is probably great.

Could Picasso teach me to paint like Picasso? Maybe.

But would I be a better painter if I tried to paint the way I wanted to?

And yes, Phil should be out watching college B Ball - in person because while the scouts can suggest, the choice is his and he better pick someone he is happy with so we're not trading them for the next Derrick Rose in 2 years.

Bottom line - Phil as a President has undermined his coaches and gotten over involved when he feels that they aren't running his specific system enough. Phil has been bad in this regard. Bad at trades. Bad at free agents. Good at the draft with limited picks.

Phil talked basketball with Tex and came to respect his BB Knowledge and chose to run Tex's Triangle offense which Phil was not a master of at first. Jeff is quite capable of learning the Triangle inside and out like Phil eventually did.

It's funny you mention Krause, a guy who hates Phil Jackson and thinks he's a fraud who took too much credit for what Krause assembled in Chicago.
