Is it the number of players he helped develop into stars? Is it the consistent level of competitiveness he has helped establish in the franchise? Is it the system or culture he has instilled in the organization? Or is it the legacy of excellence he built and left during his time as a head coach? If you look at it, all of those queries lead to one ultimate question: is a successful NBA coach measured by the championships he has won?Basketball is not merely a team sport. What is visible on the floor is how the players and team play as a unit. But what people do not normally see is what happens off the court and in the team facilities. Teams are built by organizations from the ground up. Everyone in the organization contributes to the success no matter how small their role may be. But if you look at it, the biggest role any person may have to carry is being the coach.The head coach is responsible for bringing the best out of the players, making sure the team stays competitive every season, establishing a winning culture or system, and building a legacy that lasts for generations. All of those things ultimately lead to a team built to win it all. A head coach that manages to do all those things for a team will more than likely lead the squad to a championship. And when it comes to titles, few coaches have won more rings than Pat Riley.In the NBA, where there are a lot of teams that have to contend for a title and coaches are quick to turn over from one to another, it is a difficult task to win a championship. In fact, there have only been 14 coaches that have won multiple championships. Among those 14 people, only five have won at least five titles. Pat Riley is one of them.Did you enjoy this excerpt from this basketball & leadership book?If so, be sure to pick up a copy of this basketball biography book on Pat Riley today!
