It's actually impressive hope you ignore context that doesn't fit what you like.
Coaching is not more important than roster construction, but that doesn't mean it's not important at ALL, dingus.
Steering wheel; remove it. Try to drive, even with a brand new engine & ******.

Funny thing is, I'm giving YEARS of context and examples that y'all ignoring the **** out of.

Watch the hype tonight over Spo and next week when he's eliminated nobody gonna say jack ****

(Spo, who hasn't won since he had prime Bron/Wade/Bosh, but I digress.)

I hear your steering wheel analogy.......you'll note, I don't run around telling folks how important a steering wheel is to a car......

Riley couldn't win in New York. Only when he had Magic/Kareem/Worthy or Shaq/Wade.

Phil got swept with Kobe/Pau the year before. (When they were a year younger)

And Mike Brown was coach of the year last year.....and missed the playoffs this year. Maybe he forgot how to coach?

For some reason you like to live in absolutes. Great coach =/= winning the chip every year. Just as great MVP level player means your going to win every year. There seems to be no area for nuance at all so I'll bow out for now and watch X-Men 97.
