What if phil jackson coached the heat




















While losing Bosh in Game 1 to an abdominal injury certainly creates a viable excuse, all it will do is add fuel to the fire for all the naysayers and haters to pile on.

If this season doesn't end with the Heat winning the first of their desired many league titles, heads will roll, and the first likely scapegoat in this situation will be none other than head coach Erik Spoelstra. There has always been public scrutiny of Spoelstra from players and the fans—the latest incident occurring during a timeout in Game 3 during which Wade was visibly frustrated with the head coach and had to be restrained.

If the Heat fail to win this year's crown, Spoelstra should be out as head coach. After musing over available names to lead this team, only one makes sense.

Here are five reasons why Phil Jackson would be the perfect fit as the next head coach of the Heat. After finishing that challenge, he headed off to Los Angeles to grab another five championships with the help of Shaquille O'Neal three rings and Kobe Bryant. The situation he could potentially take over in Miami might be his biggest challenge of all as LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh handpicked their current state of affairs—one that isn't going as planned.

The Los Angeles Lakers are in the midst of a rough stretch where very little is going right for them…. Featured News. The Los Angeles Lakers have suffered yet another blow on the injury front, losing…. Malik Monk recorded his best game of the season on Wednesday, scoring 27 points to fire…. In a nutshell, the starting lineups will be about dominant individuals against team stars.

It is far too difficult to distinguish between the benches of both sides because there are superstars and Hall of Famers that can come in the game in a heartbeat.

Team Phil has arguably the best possible scoring option in Carmelo Anthony to come into the game because the man was unstoppable with the New York Knicks with Jackson as an executive. Anthony averaged Glen Rice is one of the best shooters in NBA history Hardaway and Scott can handle the ball and score, while Jimmy Butler can be relied upon to play lockdown defense against the best scorer on the court. Bosh and Oakley provide size, but the main men off the bench are Ewing and Mourning.

It will be difficult for Gasol or Bynum to handle these two bigs and that will give Team Riley the best advantage in the series. Michael Jordan, a time scoring champion, is the greatest offensive player we have ever seen. Whether he attacks the rim, posts up, or pulls up from mid-range; he is almost perfect as an offensive player.

That means when he is not double-teamed, the opposing team is at risk of giving up 40 or 50 points by the Bulls legend. Things might be going well now, but the Heat's problems are just another losing streak from resurfacing.

Pat Riley, the Heat's president, always will be the hot name brought up in Miami coaching conversations, but Riley has said he doesn't want to coach anymore. Could he coax another year or two, another ring or two, out of Jackson? In her recent book "Laker Girl," Jeanie Buss writes: "Phil and Pat are friendly rivals with mutual respect for each other. They even trade notes on occasion.

There is no bitterness there even though their teams had many fierce battles when Phil was coaching the Bulls and Pat was leading the Knicks. People in L. If Miami falls short of winning a championship this season, maybe it's not out of the realm of possibility that Riley will once again try to bring out the best in Jackson by asking him to bring out the best in the Heat.
