Phil Jackon's Record Against sub .500 teams? - Click HERE to go to the original thread with graphics

Does anyone know what it is for his career? Obviously this wouldn't be easy to find, but i am curious. I have a theory that his "zen" style of coaching does not work when playing opponents who are sub .500. In other words, his coaching style is successful when playing tougher opponents but it is unsuccessful when playing weaker teams. Any thoughts?

you can get it on the stats inc. website. they charge a membership but it would be the easiest way to find out.

Jeezus, this is an idiotic theory.

I was mystified enough by this "theory" to run the numbers for Phil's two best seasons, using this website.

In those two seasons (95-96 & 96-97), the Bulls lost a total of 23 games.

Of those the following were against teams with losing records:

2/4/96, at Denver
3/24/96, at Toronto
12/8/96, at Toronto
3/14/97, at New Jersey


And the other 19 were against teams that went at least 41-41.

And I would imagine that the many other championship teams that Phil coached would also be VERY unlikely to lose against shitty teams. Despite whatever misguided bug you have up your ass of what "zen" is and whatever role it might play in his coaching.

Your theory is bullshit.
