4. Lack Of Great Coaching

Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant had Phil Jackson. Bill Russell had Red Auerbach. Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had Pat Riley. Tim Duncan has Gregg Popovich.

Who exactly has LeBron had?

Right now David Blatt is the coach of the Cavs. Hardly a comparison to some championship winning coaches.

James plays a style that has the role “player-coach” written all over it. The only problem is in today’s day and age it is an impossibility to name a player-coach.

Could you imagine how much better James might be if he had the benefit of a Riley or Jackson as his guy?
