Can we talk about my guy Mike "The Maestro" D'antoni looking like the UNANIMOUS coach of the year?

Dantoni turned a white guard into a 2 time MVP

Dantoni turned an Asian guard into a household name and had people saying he was a better prospect than kyrie and John wall

Dantoni had Raymond Felton looking like an all star

:russ:

The man Is a miracle worker
Yet he couldnt do shyt with Kobe

As usual you've got it backwards. Dantoni owes his career to Steve Nash, who went just as far without Dantoni as he ever did with him. Meanwhile only one Nash-less Dantoni team has ever had a record better than .500. 42-40, they got swept in the first round.

Goatavich the coach of the year and it aint even close...

Washed up old point guard who can't even play 3 games in a row without getting hurt...starter

Two guard who can't dribble or pass and never shoots freethrows...starter

Rookie Latvian power forward who looks like a matt bonner clone...2nd big off the bench

Third year big man who couldn't even get minutes in Orlando averaging 3 points for his career...1st big off the bench...

Third year small forward who can't run, jump, shoot...backup small forward

Second year shooting guard who is only in the league cause he paid to try out for the d league...backup shooting guard / small forward...

Rookie Argentinian point guard who you couldn't pronounce his last name if I put a gun to your head...played in 14 games...started 4 of them...

39 year old player making 14 million to go 0 - 9 against the bulls... backup shooting guard...

Took all that...mixed them with one great player in Kawhi...and the spurs have the second best record in the league...

How many if your favorite teams are winning games playing a guy who looks like this?

Notice how I didn't mention Lamarcus...that's because if you have seen him play this year you wouldn't want to mention him either...

You must be a young bul

Before steve Nash joined dantoni he had been in the league for 9 years and he made the all star game twice

Nash and Erick Dampier were free agents at the same time. Dallas thought Dampier was more valuable.

Nash was best friends with dirk and Cuban and they still chose Dampier over Nash

That should give you some perspective on how Nash was viewed before dantoni turned him into a hall of fame
