Because they were total and utter shit before he arrived. Getting Elton Brand to give effort and getting Andre Iguodala to play smart are worth COY by themselves. :lol

BTW, Alvin Gentry is on the list in the OP, and his team is actually .500 and didn't even make the playoffs.

The turning a shit team to .500 schtick only works for one year. If you're two years in and you're still playing .500 ball, you haven't changed for the better, made any more progress or innovated.

The Sixers at their best are .500 team. That's why I am surprised they didn't make any significant moves at the deadline. They have tried with that group of guys and they need to shake up stuff and try something different.

Fair enough. Philly is above .500 this year and Phoenix hasn't been since they made the west finals, though. Collins shouldn't be CoY, but he damn sure should get a mention before Gentry.

Gentry gets a mention because Doug's roster is more stacked and yet they are at the same level.

No Monty WIlliams?

To have the record that team did, he should be investigated for using black magic....

Would be great to see Parker on the 1st team but no way he gets voted in over CP3. Pop though sealed COY today after the Rose debacle by Thib.

I don't know about that, but it's pretty certain that the Suns would have been much better than 8th in the East if they were there instead of Philly.

IIRC the votes are sent in before the playoffs start.

Voters should be on the phone right now. No way Thib deserves that honor now.

Injuries can happen at any time. The only thing I can think off is maybe he should have slowly built up D. Rose's minutes.

With the depth they have at that position, there's no way Rose should be in a game up 12 with a minute and a half to go.
