Not his fault Mike Brown sucks and can't coach star players.

And when he's handed a super team he produces. Not sure what's wrong with that.

And when he's handed a lottery team he makes them a playoff team and eventually a champion.

Call him a piece of shit, but call him the greatest too.

I wonder what these travel restrictions are. I hope Phil wouldn't have someone else actually coach games on the road.

He basically doesn't want to travel on road games as it would strain him.

He actually does want someone else to take over the road games, the one he'll mentor to carry on the triangle offense when he's (really) gone, his protege. I guess it's one of the reasons why the negotiations back then with the Blazers and Knicks didn't work out because they didn't want to pay full-time for a coach who'll coach their team for basically half a season. :shrug:

So Phil gets all the credit for only doing part of the work? Must be nice. But his legacy isn't my concern. I'm skeptical that you can have a totally different coach on the road and not have it impact the team at all. I'm assuming Phil would coach the road playoff games so maybe it wouldn't end up mattering though.
