Again, this "he didn't do anything without X player(s)" argument is absolutely silly. That argument shifts the focus from reality to some strange hypothetical universe that we'll never be able to look into (Pop without Duncan, Rivers without the B3, Carlisle without Dirk). There is pretty much zero point in that.
And you're not even applying the argument consistently. Rivers did sh*t without those guys? Fine. Adelman's done sh*t without Drexler, Porter, Kersey, Duckworth, and Robinson. Hell--he's done even less than Rivers overall. One title to none.
I'd also love to know what "e.g." means. Who else do you think is better than Rivers? More guys who have inferior objective credentials?
