Hoopshype NBA Coaching Rankings

[Hahahaha]

From a purely technical point of view Thibs is better then Doc but Doc is probably the most liked coach in the league. As much as he drives me crazy with his small ball rotations and complete disregard for rebounding I'll take that over our key players not wanting to play here and his ability to attract FA's.

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

I don't know why everyone thought this clown was ready to immediately become a head coach in the NBA. Especially since we have all been subject to his brainless commentary over the years.

It's like people assume that if a guy isn't a stereotypical NBA star physically but he can still carve out a career in the NBA, he must have the smarts needed to become an NBA coach. If that's the case, I can't wait to see some of Hedo Turkoglu's postgame press conferences.

Name 1 coach that could've won alot of games with a starting lineup of

Biedrins
Lee
Wright
Ellis
Jenkins

With a bench of

Gladness
Tyler
Mcguire
Thompson
Nate Robinson


Not to mention the tank was in after the Monta trade so we could keep our pick. I bet hoopshype jumps on his dikk if Steph and Bogut play over 50 games each.

Gregg Popovich number 1 just the way it should be

HoopsHype - The coaching rankings


this fool Byron Scott really tried to take some credit as to why the Lakeshow was successful? And great Mike Brown has to be the coach of my team. That's my coach.

Avery Johnson is not no top 10 coach.

why isnt he?

for their nets hate though

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Doc rivers was an average player at best. Mark Jackson's career shyts on Doc's overall as a player.

hmmm

Interesting comparison actually.

Doc was bigger and a better defensive player than Mark but to me Mark was the better point guard.

Nuggets had no expectations until the Chauncey trade, and lo and behold, GK had the team in the conference finals and lost to the better team. he never had the chance to redeem himself: the following season he was dying of cancer and his franchise player was getting ready to force his way out.


let's talk about him coaching a squad that was decimated by injuries, a squad that actually had to rely on Corey Brewer and Timothy mutherfukking Mozgov each night, to the 6th seed and pushed a Lakers team that arguably had the 3 best players to the brink of elimination.

there's a reason why so many people are predicting the Nuggets to be at the top of the conference and why some GM's even voted for us to win the West -- and it's not because we're more talented or star-studded than the Lakers or OKC. give GK a group of hardworking and unselfish players and he can work magic.

That's the problem. The people that picked him as the coach are the same people that assembled that roster.

I'm not basing my dislike for Jackson's coaching on his record coaching a makeshift injury riddled Warriors roster. It's that he's a total moron.

 

[YaBoy]

Thibs should be #1 but i aint mad a Pop getting that spot I think he's the only other coach that you can make a good argument for being better

Sharon you're my boy and all but at GK and he's way too arrogant.
Dude swears he's owed something, there's a reason he hasn't won a ship. Ol hair lip phaggot

 

[phillycavsfan]

Not only is Pops the best coach in the NBA by a long shot, but I'd rank alongside Red and Phil as one of the greatest ever. It's incredible how long he's kept that Spurs team not only relevant, but contending almost every year.

I never questioned his ability to get the most out of his squads when nobody expects them to do shyt. By no means do I think he's a "bad" coach. But the fact is everywhere he's been he's always had above average talented teams (with the exception of the Nuggets before AI and after Melo) and has a track record of underachieving with them.

And the Nuggets are being picked to have a high seed because the Ty Lawson nikka is taking over this season

can I get some specific examples where Karl clearly underachieved?

I can think of one instance -- (losing to the Nugs in 94 -- that team was special though ), but other than that, either his squads weren't talented enough to contend or he was able to get the finals/conference finals with teams that were good, but not good enough.

winning 57 games in 95 and losing in the 1st round to the Van Exel/Vlade Lakers....one year after coaching the first #1 seed in history to lose to an #8 seed

missing the playoffs completely with the Bucks in '02 despite bringing back the same team that was one game from the Finals the year before.

USA and their sixth place finish in the worlds.

Besides all that, the next playoff series he wins w/o having homecourt advantage will be his first

 

[Kid Coli]

it's crazy how many bad coaches there are in the league and how few excellent coaches there are.

apart from Pops and Thibs, ALL the other coaches are suspect IMO

 

[Kid Coli]

most NBA teams would be better off WITHOUT a coach matter fact
