the trend points to this direction, and unfortunately, the last 3 this has happened to, none have deserved it, when it happens to coach brown he will have deserved it though.....

pretty much look  at  byron scott he received the award back when he was coaching for the "Nets" in  one of the 2 seaons he coached there and look at him now fired as he was the hornets head coach ......next men in-line will be your man well lebrons home boy mike brown  which I believe he does not do a very good job at coaching look at last years playoff's I believe all his plays are drawn up for king james  I heard a myth which said theres  no "I" in team ,because of this and many more issues the whole team broke down i see why he's bold no stress well I dont think so he might just want to set a  new game plan once he gets to the play off this year if they get there because theres alot of teams which are built to last  "on the court"and coming " off the bench "and the fact that they brought in shaq well aint going to do much he's old and  wont be able to guard the pick role maybe if he does get to be in the finals. Kobe, if the lakers make it could get his  revenge and shoulve his fifth ring in his face ,make a rap video  for all the wrong reason ....but im a knicks fan just saying mike brown just doyour job because lebron might be coming to MSG..Money mouth

It seems to be the recent curse doesn't it, maybe the teams over achieve and then when the fans and GM look at the team that is no longer over performing it comes down to the coach?

There's a reason why Phil Jackson only won it once, in 1996.


Hey, there's someone who didn't get the curse.


CotY is overrated anyway, they simply pick the team with the best record and reward that coach with the award, even if the players did all the work. They sort of treat it like the Most Improved Player award, based on the team's improvement in seasonal records, rare for a person to win it more than once on the same team. Only Don Nelson has done that with the Bucks.





Lol and Jerry Sloan never won it with Utah and he been there for I think 22 years.

There is no other name given unto man, that man ought to be save. But by the name Jesus!!!
