That's because he didn't win 6 titles...he bought a team with Michael Jordan on it. Reinsdorf has proved himself as a basketball owner since Jordan retired....we've had 2 winning teams in 12 years, 0 teams with 50 wins. He's never paid the luxury tax. He won't do everything to win. He doesn't deserve to be in the same sentence as those other guys.
We have a history of Reinsdorf as an owner with MJ, and Reinsdorf as an owner without MJ. It's clear who deserves the credit for 6 titles
I am sorry, did Jordan play with a HOF player? HOF coach? How did they get there? That argument is great for Jordan's ego...however, it doesn't work. Because its inaccurate. And Jordan has stated that himself many times. It was a team that won those titles.
Krause did a great job of building around Jordan. And had he gotten his way, he would have started rebuilding earlier than he did. He failed miserably after Jordan's retirement, because he struck out in free agency. But he still deserves credit for what he did in the 1990's.
How many titles did Michael Jordan win without Pippen, Jackson, and the others? If it was just about Jordan, the Bulls would have had 10, 15 titles. That is not the way team sports work. You have to build a team. And you have to finance a team. That is plain and simple. Without Reinsdorf and Krause those teams as set up would not have existed. Krause was Reinsdor's choice. And that is what owners do. Delegate responsibility. All this talk about spending money is ludicrous. Its about how you spend, especially in a system with a cap. By the way, ask bitter Cubs fans how they feel about all of that spending.
Does Michael McCaskey deserve credit for winning the 1985 Super Bowl? Of course not. He was an incompetant moron.
So Reinsdorf is an incompetent moron? Is this a metaphorical comparison to Reinsdorf? George Halas put that team together. He hired Ditka, Ryan, Finks...
Halas was notoriously cheap, he makes Reinsdorf look like Steinbrenner. But he deserves credit for putting together the administrative staff that build one of sports' great teams.
So again, your comparing Reinsdorf to McCaskey makes no sense whatsoever. Halas wanted McCaskey's uncle to run the team, but he died. Halas never liked McCaskey. But by the time McCaskey took over, the team was in place. McCaskey didn't buy the team, hire coaches and administrators...none of that. Reinsdorf did. Totally different situation. Yet both Reinsdorf and Halas are considered very successful, and in my opinion, great owners.
