Phil Jackson at #4? I would have at least 7 championships if I coached Jordan and Pippen during their primes and then Shaq and Kobe during their primes in a water down league.

Phil Jackson? After he catches Red Auerbach maybe..

no complaints with that list

People not giving Phil his due always me laugh. I don't care how many superstars were on his teams, there are superstars all over the league. Bottom line is those players still have to play for him and he got essentially 4 completely different teams (minus a few repeat players) to perform his way and win championships. He was a top 10 all-time NBA coach in 1998 and has added 4 more rings to his resume since then. I have no problem with where he is on that list.
