If the Spurs record their best record in franchise history, does Pop get Coty?

[Purch]

Their best record was 63-19. If they pass that aren't you kinda forced to give him Coty?

[Shabba Ranks]

NO

[pegasus]

He should win it every year. Only Thibs is close.

[SpecialQue]

But if he wins it he'll get fired.

[JohnMax]

Spoelstra was in a similar situation last year. 27 win streak and Heat franchise record of 66 wins.

[OmniStrife]

And yet, G. Karl got that award...
It's cursed! I fear for Horny... :eek:

Pop would break 70 with that Miami team.

Popovich deserves coach of the year by a decent margin. Thibs and Hornacek are 2/3.

[FKAri]

The best coach doesnt win COTY.

COTY is for coaches who's teams are inexplicably outperforming expectations.

[ImKobe]

Damn, when was the last time a team won 30+ games on the road in a season? Spurs are currently at 29-8. Miami won 29 last year despite having 66 wins.

Who would have expected the Spurs to be on pace to their best record in franchise history after last year?

[kaiteng]

No, because Spurs have been good for a long time already.

Hornacek will get the CotY.

[EnoughSaid]

Pop would break 70 with that Miami

Last year or 2012 maybe, but not this season. 3 straight Finals appearances is gruesome to a teams's health, and it's crazy if they do it again this year.

But having Pop institute a system on this team would be amazing. Imagine the movement, the passing. :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

[TMT]

Nope. They'll give it to whoever is coaching the Raptors nowadays.

[Jlamb47]

I think he deserves it. But Pop has been the best coach in the NBA since Phil stopped coaching. I would say the raptors or the suns maybe.

[Purch]

3 more wins

What Clifford did with the bobcats is superior

[iTare]

im a horny fan

[SHABBA]

Thibs.

[blackification]

Pop has had the same core and that system in place for a while.

Hornacek had to implement his system in one offseason with a team of new guys.
