Yeah, that's why in my opening post I said him, but I have to admit that Tark my have been worse, yet only by a hair, which of course he didn't have any of unless you count his ears and nose!![]()
That's why I said Cotton...

It's clearly pop guys he's the only one that definitively cost us 6 les including 6. His love for bonner and small ball has tarnished the Duncan era and is ruining the end of his career
Moe was the best. You give Moe Duncan and the Spurs win back to back.
The whole Tark-Lucas-Hill period was one big sandwich, tbh. Tark was definitely the low water mark of the period, though.
Cotton Fitzsimmons is before my time as a Spurs fan, so I can't fairly vote for or against him.
1. Jerry Tarkington*
2. John Lucas
3. Mo Mchone
4. Bob Weiss
5. Larry Brown: for being a negative, whinning b!tch that ruined Willie Anderson, almost ruined Sean Elliottt, and set the Spurs back several years in the early Drob formative years by campaigning to get himself fired. A total little t. He probably should be the #1 listed bad coach, but he did know his X's & O's. Horrible motivator.
*Quiz: Who called him that?

I cant put Weiss on the list, he was dealt a very poor hand, plus, he was so bad, we got DRob.....so I have to give him some kudos for his suckage.
I blame Hill for the 95 WCF. While Rudy T had his team double and triple teaming Robinson on one end, he left Robinson on an island against the Dream on the other end. Yes, the Rockets had very good perimeter shooters, but still, he let the Dream simply go off. BTW, it is true that David couldn't stop Hakeem, but it is also true that Hakeem had no answer for David. One on one, they were simply a wash and the two best Centers in the game at that time. That series came down to coaching and Hill cowered in the corner in a puddle of his own piss. Of course it didn't help that Rodman was off on his own agenda by that time.
Tark was absolutely horrible.
I agree with Twisted Dawg on his assessment of Larry Brown, he got into Elliott's head and made him tentative. All his life, Sean was a scoring machine, but he comes to the play for Brown and gets mind ed into becoming a hesitent, self-questioning player. Elliott was a scoring version of Pippen before Larry Brown.......BTW, the way I feel about Larry Brown is the same way I feel about Bill Parcells.
I will go with John Lucas.
Red McCombs?
Hear, hear. The D'Antoni of the 1990s.
Robert Hill for sure
My guess: Red McCombs
I guess record-wise, it would be Mo McHone. (.355)
I'd day Tarkanian, but the team he thought he would be coaching and the one he was handed were quite different.
For underachieving, Bob Hill is at the top. He and his concubine Kevin O'Keefe were quite a pair.
If you count the Chaparrals, Babe McCarthy was 24-48 (.333) and his replacement Dave Brown at 4-8 (.333) take the cake.
Some of my earlier memories were of Lucas emphatically running and jumping, on the sidelines...usually reacting to the admirals play. He use to let the players talk out the timeouts and he would stand off to the side, catching his breath, most likely. Not great coach but entertaining.
It's tough to lose a 5-point lead in less than a minute with Tim Duncan on the floor. Just sayin.
Bob Hill, no doubt.
DIdn't Bud coach the spurs to a 4-0 record? Can't remember
