IF you had a son , would you let him play ball for BK? i'll say i'm not a big BK fan but i would want my kid to play for him.

I have never cared for some of his antics/behavior, but as a coach, not many better. Great teacher of the game who prepared his kids to succeed both on the court and more importantly off the court (Isiah being the exception )

I absolutely agree. Not many bad apples that fell from that tree. Who wouldn't send their son there where you know he will learn to play basketball while graduating and becoming a man?

I don't know..I don't disagree with the results, but I'm not sure I'd want to subject my son to the journey getting there. There are a lot of coaches, both known and unknown, that can get the same results without the humiliation, berating and intimidation that BK can't avoid.

Learn how to hate basketball while
letting him butt fck you like a sheep.
Some kids need a drill sergeant to
tool them, some dont.

Great coach, horrible tactics.
Never ever did you ever hear this guy
say this is a beautiful game lets play
it the right way. He made it hell.

One of the best basketball minds
coupled with absolutely the worst
teaching methods. Except if you wanted
to produce a Spartan Warrior.

Complete enigma. A tragic Greek figure.
If you like Douglas McArthur or Patton,
he is your man. Basketball is not war.
And if a kid needs a game to teach him
to be a man try the Armed Forces.
