    Who's the NBA coach of the year? Mike Woodson, Mark Jackson, or George Karl?

    To me these 3 guys have to be the front-runners for the award. And they are all deserving of it.

    I'm going to go with a homer pick and say Woodson gets it. And I will be the first to admit I was wrong about this guy.
    I was irate when they gave him an extension without looking at anyone else. I remembered his tenure in Atlanta and wasn't impressed. He couldn't get those guys on the Hawks to show up every night. But I guess it may have just been impossible, as they are still the most unpredictable team in the NBA night in and night out.
    Woodson is about to get the Knicks to 50 wins, something they haven't done since the Ewing Era probably.
    The Knicks have had injuries all year long like any other team, but have only had the combination of Stoudemire,Chandler,Felton, and Melo on the court together for about 12 games maybe off the top of my head.
    I came into this season saying lets win 45 and try and get past the first round of the playoffs, and build on that for next year. But was I wrong? Can this team make a run at the Heat???

    Mark Jackson and the Warriors have had an amazing year for a team that has pretty much been non-competitive since Baron Davis and even then they were barely what I would call successful. If I had to guess I'd say this team made the playoffs one time in the last 15 years? How long ago was Webber there?
    Anyways Jackson has some good young talent on the team obviously and has done a great job getting them to buy in and actualy believe they can win.
    He's got the NY swagger and an old school approach, and I think will be a good coach for many years to come.

    George Karl is a guy who may sneak up and win this. Without a star on the team, This team has been on an unreal tear. They lost Iguadola for a while, then Gallinari missed some time, but really did anyone think this team could be the #2 or #3 seed in a pretty stacked Western Conference? How did they do it?

    All 3 guys is deserving of the award and have done amazing jobs with their squads this year. I haven't researched too hard about who else can get it, I'm sure there are 3 or 4 others.
    Popovich? The Indiana guy (Drawing a blank on his name and don't wanna look it up lol)?

    Not pop this yr
    gotta go with George, nuggets been hot literally all season

    Mark Jackson had this completely locked up but they went through a pretty rough stretch I believe after the all star break. I still like what he's doing over there, but Karl gets my vote.

    Why not pop? I'm curious.

    Pop or Karl. Vogel too should be in the conversation IMO.

    Jackson or Karl would be my vote. The East is not good enough to give it Woodson.

    Mike D'Antoni


    No but for real, Karl should win it. The Nuggets are a perfect example of how a team should look and play, and he doesn't have any superstars to revolve a game plan around. Plus they won 13 or so games in a row at one point in the Western Conference, which is very impressive.

    They will likely give it to Spoelstra because of the winning streak

    Lol yeah right. 0% chance for him to get it. That team doesn't even require a coach.

    why Kar? denver has always been a play off team. dont know what have they done differently this year. for me, bulls coach because of no stars. When u have carmelo scoring 50, u dont need a coach.
