NBA Finals: 5 Reasons LeBron James Is Better Than Michael Jordan
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.

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?
