With 16 combined championships won, Pat Riley and Phil Jackson are considered to be the greatest NBA coaches of all time, leading iconic teams and coaching legendary players. One of such was O’Neal, who spent almost half of his NBA career under tutelage from Jackson during his time at the Los Angeles Lakers and Riley during his stint with the Miami Heat.

Former Los Angeles Lakers star Shaquille O’Neal claims that Phil Jackson’s coaching approach was more effective than Pat Riley’s.

Lakers great Shaquille O'Neal got to play for both Phil Jackson and Pat Riley, and he feels that one of them clearly had a better style of leadership.

Shaquille O'Neal revealed how he convinced the legendary Pat Riley to adjust the Miami Heat's practice schedule, allowing the team to balance partying with peak performance.

His production is why the Sixers signed him to a 3-year $193 million extension to keep him in Philadelphia for the long term. Embiid has an obvious commitment to the city of Philadelphia and the Sixers as a whole and that's why he's in for the foreseeable future.
