George Karl wins COY and Doc Rivers finishes 13th. Some more interesting ranks:

12.Vinny Del Negro


Was this accurate on your list of top coaches? Should Doc have finished ahead of Vinny?

I think so. I don't have much truck with the rest of the rankings. Seems about right.

Who was #11?

I don't understand Spoelstra coming in second.  Did his coaching job stand out in any way?

I'm also surprised that Marc Jackson finished as low as he did.

I really thought Marc should be higher. What he did with his team is remarkable. They're always talking about the way Spo is able to "handle" the egos and what not of the Big 3..I don't know.

It's pretty funny that there is a chance that 10, 11, and 12 are all not retained for next season.

I had Vogel, Karl, Pop, Jackson and Thibs in the top 5, in something pretty close to that order.

I don't like Woodson but I can see the argument.

What I find funny, is that there are only 30 coaches in the league, and 14 of them got votes (and it looks like they all got more than 1 vote too).

That would be like over 200 players getting votes for MVP.

That's a great point.  The nuances of coaching are much more subtle than the performances of individual players.

For the record, I'd say Karl is a pretty good pick.

The award is for the regular season, and I'd say that most people wouldn't have predicted a 3 seed for the Nuggets.  Several of their players have also made some solid improvements under his watch.

I think that says more about the voting body.

Sounds about right in terms of Doc not deserving to finish in the top 10 this year.

But Woodson ahead of Popovich? What is this? And I actually thought Spoelstra was gonna win coach of the year. Karl's team turned out to be overrated in the playoffs.

  This might be the award where I'd be least able to guess the criteria based on the results. I don't think Spoelstra's a bad coach but I don't think he adds anything as a coach to make Miami better than they'd otherwise be. Also, I think Woodson's a decent coach but "well coached" didn't jump out at me when I saw the Knicks in the playoffs.
