2013 Worst Coach of the Year

[Fudge]

Scott Brooks may not be the worst, but he's certainly up there. Probably top 5.

Don't be fooled by OKC's record. We win games because of the talent on the team. Rarely do you see him run plays for Durant or Westbrook, just 1-on-1's and iso's and go on from there. His rotations are suspect as well. Fisher getting playing time over Ronnie Brewer, Jeremy Lamb, PJ3, Liggins? The hell is that.

You don't need to run plays for some of the best iso players in the league. You let them iso and break down the team's D for you.

Give your nominee and explain why.


Dwayne Casey

- attempted to mindf*ck Jonas Valancius by playing Aaron Gray over him in fourth quarters no matter how well JV played that game
- destroyed the confidence of Terrence Ross
- allowed journeyman Allan Stinkface Anderson to chuck his way into a long-term NBA contract at the expense of developing the youth
- supposed defensive specialist with a bad defensive team
- worst offensive coach in the league, with the long 2-pointer being the shot of choice
- worst rotations in the league; attempting to match up with other team's line-up no matter how absurd the result was; going small-ball and losing 10 point leads like nobody's business
- allows DD, Gay, and Anderson to jack up long twos and shut out JV after JV scores 16 points in the first half (he took all of 2 shots in the second half as the coach didnt enforce that his players pass to their best offensive option)
- neutered the bulldog that was Kyle Lowry

Let me add on to these points: His "offensive schemes" or lackthereof, make the Raptors virtually impossible to watch without immense frustration. We need an actual coach, Casey needs to put more time into being an assistant, rounding out his skills and adding to his knowledge.

We need a common sense coach. Casey is trying to do too much instead of sticking with the basics. Instead of running plays to get JV some post up opportunities, we are stuck watching Amir shoot 20 foot jump shots in the middle of the shot clock

Casey is not a bad guy, he's just not ready to be our coach.

Since a lot of you don't watch Kings games cause the team currently sucks the clear winner of this thread is the one and only Keith Smart.

[LIST][*]None existant rotations and players just randomly getting mins and not even earning them.[/LIST]

[LIST][*]What's offense? Literally no plays other than Iso for Evans/Cousins[/LIST]

[LIST][*]What's defense? The amount of wide open looks the Kings give up is really something else.[/LIST]

I don't think I have ever seen a more poorly coached team but I will say Keith seems like a really nice guy................

You've gotta have a good balance of both. They're not winning a ring off iso's and 1-on-1's against a team like Miami.

One evidence to support the Casey's case:

[d.bball.guy]

I feel bad for the young players like T-Ross and Valanciunas.

Here's a tip: if your team has home court during the first round of the playoffs, you're disqualified from posting here.

ESPECIALLY if your team nearly broke a record with a winning streak.

One evidence to support the Casey's case:

That's not coaching. That's Aaron Grey displaying some of the worst defensive mechanics ever seen. He need to learn how to chop and shuffle instead running up to Kobe freaking Bryant that far from the basket.

It's more of Casey's play call to double-team Kobe and pick the worst one to do so.

[LosScandalous]

One evidence to support the Casey's case:

lol that was 90% gray's fault, he set a pick on his own teammate, not to mention he shouldn't be that far away from the basket considering hes the slowest player in the league

[NumberSix]

Brooks is LVC. Least valuable coach. I truly believe nothing would be different if OKC just didnt have a coach.

For once i agree with you bruv.

Vinny unleashes DJ and he gets 20/12

[Mr. Jabbar]

What!? are you all related to Jim Buss or what? Dantoni is the worst coach in the league bar none.
