The bottom line is, players need coaches and coaches need players.
Not sure if you are serious about this. But obviously the Celtics w/ Garnett are a better team. If they had Garnett in the playoffs this year. The playoffs would have been a lot different, but if my grandmother had balls, she would be my grandfather.

Doc Rivers is a good coach. (better then stan van gundy IMO)

There are many team that outright dominated in some seasons (DALLAS MAVERICKS, SACRAMENTO KINGS) and didn't win shit. But they might have won if Phil Jackson was the coach.

Also, asking if he is the best is an opinion. I think he knows how to pull a team together. He has a great offensive scheme. so on so forth. That is my opinion, I could be wrong.
