How do you create synergy with your leadership? Steve Kerr: The players have to be accepting of coaching, accepting of partnership. Michael Jordan really respected Phil. Maybe it was because he played for Dean Smith and recognized the power of a great coach. Phil recognized the power of an alliance between them and had a great respect. Tim Duncan was to ‘Pop’ what Steph Curry is for me. It’s an amazing, generational talent who also happens to be unbelievably humble and amenable to coaching and, if necessary, criticism. Those players in many cases determine whether that culture is going to form, whether they’re really going to allow the coach to implement things he’s looking to do.
Justin Kubatko: Giannis Antetokounmpo last night: ✅ 40 PTS ✅ 13 REB ✅ 5 AST Antetokounmpo is just the third player in NBA postseason history to record at least 40p/10r/5a in a Game 7, joining Jerry West (1969) and Tim Duncan (2006). He’s the first player to do so on a winning team. pic.twitter.com/a6NcLlxQDi
WHEN KEVIN DURANT or Damian Lillard — or Tim Duncan and Dwyane Wade before them — makes his annual or biannual appearance in an NBA arena, the host team can sell the date as part of an “A” package of premium games. But when James or Curry is in town — and as was the case for Bryant — the residue of his stardom is everywhere from premium alcohol sales in the luxury clubs to receipts from the in-arena NBA store. A midseason Tuesday night tilt featuring James or Curry can generate hundreds of thousands of dollars above a game featuring a median NBA team. KD and Dame are exceptional ambassadors for the NBA; but a night with LeBron or Steph is an official state visit.
