NO WAY does Popovich deserve coach of the year. This is a joke! I think the award should go to Rick Carlisle for his success with Detroit. He proved his team was not a one year fluke and the Pistons won the top seed in the East. Popovich is a horrible coach! I would even give the award to the Warriors head coach over Popovich. And how about Flip Saunders he had a great season, too despite several injuries.
shape your going too far. even if u dont think he deserved thee award calling him a horrible coach is ridiculously harsh. a horrible coach wouldnt have taken a team with youngsters filling in so many minuites to the best record in the NBA even with tim duncan. key example: orlando magic
sorry the guy is a class A jerk. he takes his military background image too, far and he has never out coached anyone. he is fortunate to have a great management team to build around TD & D-Rob. he is a horrible coach, look at the pathetic job of coaching he did in the olympics. popovich is a DICKtator not a coach.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "pchotsauce":</div><div class="quote_post">I think Don Nelson deserves Coach of the Year...he's developed the Mavs so well...look what's he's done wit em</div> yeah thats true
what about hubie, he baught the team from no work ethics to practicing on time and becomeing well rounded players
nelson is more deserving than popovich. i would put him 2nd or 3rd after carlise and possibly after musselman.
