One of the things that people overlook when they compare LeBron James to Michael Jordan is the coaches that the two had been coached by. According to sports analyst Chris Broussard, if the Los Angeles Lakers superstar had been linked with one of the all-time greatest coaches, he would have more titles.
“Had LeBron been linked up w/ one of the all-time greats, Phil Jackson, Gregg Popovich or Pat Riley he would have more championships. … LeBron hasn’t had that coach that will just make him be part of the system rather than the entire system,” Broussard said on First Things First of FOX Sports 1.
Michael Jordan won six titles with the Chicago Bulls while working with one of the most successful coaches of all-time Phil Jackson.
