    Deserved it, what he did with the team, players and rotations is remarkable. Best coach in the NBA, sadly Phil overshadowed him a bit the in the last decade.

    He's one hell of a coach. I don't have any problem with that.

    Yeah, pop is the coach of the decade as far as I'm concerned. But he is a great coach.

    Should have been Thibs. Obviously they didn't want to give it to the same person back-to-back.

    I thought Thibs deserved it too. Have they ever had a co-COY?

    Yeah, this dude is an epic coach -- competitive for what the last 15 years in a small market -- amazing.

    Oh yeah, he listed TD out as 'Old' --> COTY.

    I think Pop should win this every year for the last 10+ years. He's just that good of a coach.

    What Pop did to win COY, was rest the big 3 during the shortened regular season & still have the best record in the West. That was iconic!

    Not sure if my logic is right but after looking at SA and the C's i suspect that a shorter compact season is better for older teams or at least in the disguise.
