      Michael Jordan did. If he was the GOAT as you call him Skip why not win with what you have? He's the GOAT you say. No matter the coach, no matter if he had Pippen or not. He should be able to win with anybody. He's 6 for 6! He's never lost! He could have won 10 as you say. Certainly he wasn't scared to mess up that perfect record, He's the GOAT right?

      Uncle Tony it would not have felt good. One of the points I’m trying to make is that part of Jerry’s motive for wanting to rebuild the team was because he simply just didn’t like the people who worked under him and because he didn’t get much credit for the wins. It just goes to show he let his ego get in the way a little. If he was smart he would have rode the backs of the players and coach into a potential fourth championship. Instead he was just being stubborn.

    *As great as Phil is, he also had a massive support system of a small army of coach assistants, including the game-strategist genius 'Tex' who invented the Triangle Offense.*
    *Majority of the greatest people in history surrounded themselves with great talent that are unknown.*
    *Owner 'Jerry Reinsdorf' is the one to blame for the Bulls problems, he just paid people and sit back. As a billionaire he didnt do the right thing and renegotiate Pippin's contract to at least increase the pay to reflect the all-star contribution he was bringing. Scottie is such a nice guy, and only cared about providing for his poor family, why not suport a person like that and pay him properly?? Jordan was only paid 30 million that last year, and that was when Jordan's top power agents had to fight to owners to even get that amounnt. Minus taxes at 50%, Jordan only making 15 million a year after taxes, and yet he was making everyone millions of dollars around the world that added up to billions! Jordan was even more underpaid than scottie! And they disrespected Rodman, downplayed him so they didnt have to give one of the greatest defensive players in sports history his proper pay either! Jerry Reinsdorf is a slavemaster! He's not that talented in business, he got lucky where others did the genius work for him. And that last year he should have stepped-up like a real man and had some serious Bulls family sitdowns where everyone could air out their issues and resolve them so everyone could successfully do their jobs without daily resentment. Instead this bozo underpaid everyone and let them walk away where he was left with NOTHING from the Bulls dynasty. He's a bum of a businessman that got lucky.*

      I agree with everything you had to say except for the part where you said Tex invented the Triangle. It wasn't he who had invented it, but the coach he played for did in the 1940s while at USC. That coach name was Sam Barry. Tex was the innovator who had further developed Barry's system.

      Interesting consideration. Doug was certainly very unlucky. They did better against the Pistons with him then every other team in the 89 postseason. But Jackson was a master coach and balancer of (huge) egos. Can't argue with 11 rings.

      @gm2407 ปีที่แล้ว

      I look at it this way. There was no cap space to retool with MJ if he gets $30m the next season. Pippen also wanted to get paid, the Bulls are getting another year older (also among the oldest rosters to ever win the NBA) Rodman is unlikely to give you a full season of the quality of the previous seaeons. Sure Jerry blew it up, but it was reaching an end. Jerry may have wanted to be like Red and rebuild but he missed what made Red great. Red could have a relationship of mutual respect with his subordinates. That goes a long way with getting people to work with you and not against you. Whatever happened and however Jerry went about it all the key relationships were broken by the last dance.

I knew nothing about him and was going off of the opinion of others. The more I watched the more I grew to enjoy this attention to detail, work ethic and other attributes. A lot of people don’t like Skip and I understand but I’m not one of them.

    I dont agree with everything with both skip and shannon I do agree with this one here and I give skip much credit for sticking to his guns and retelling this story as boldly as this. Phil Jackson gets a pass way too much and no matter how it may seem or he tries to spin it when it was all said and done he signs up with the Lakers which was another highly skilled team with promise. He is overrated as a coach and is all about money, all that zen and other philosophical way is just smoke in the air to his real underlining passion which is money same as all these entertainers and athletes no matter how much they act like it doesnt. What gets me is that Phil knew he was going out and imo was just as selfish and egotistical as Krause was yet hes painted as the hero.
