JVG or Sloan better win this thing. Sam Mitchell? Please. Avery? He's got a loaded roster. He's a very good coach, but he's also got a VERY good squad of players.
he did get us in the playoffs though, when yao went out most of us were saying that we should tank the season...
jvg holds the option for another season. the only reason i see why there's no announcement about a contract extension is he's holding out until after the playoffs where he'll have more leverage when discussing money. nothing wrong with that might i add.
While I agree that Van Gundy or Sloan should win it, the award isn't about the biggest improvement, its about the best coaching job. Big improvements may suggest a good coaching job or they could just indicate a poor coaching job the year before.
I think tmac had a lot to do with that too. He's done a good job this year, but if they dont make it out of the first round, the season is a waste
My money's on Sloan. He's done a great job as always, plus he's the sentimental favorite. Hey, if Scorsese can win Oscars for "The Departed" then anything's possible.
NBA should set up a DeCOY so JVG can win it and all these silly JVG COY talks can die mercifully. JVG is a DeCOY. Happy now?
