:mjlol: at Spo being coach of the year.

Yeah, the Heat had a great second half, and Spo did a magnificent coaching job in the second half of the season. But part of the reason that it was so great was because of how bad they were during the first half. Like, if they had the same record, but just played more consistent during the season, he would not even be in the discussion for this shyt.

This is equivalent to your bad lil cousin getting a pass all the time from your family, cause he fukked his life up, and now he's at least trying. Meanwhile, you been consistent your whole life. Never did anything too great, but nothing horrible, and your fam is telling you that you need to try harder:francis:

Well deserved both ways.

What I personally like about Spo's award is the Miami Heat team are a lot closer with each other.

Also if it's your peers who are coaching against you are saying you deserve the award because they're the ones playing against you, then that means a lot more.

KD put it well:
“I think coach Spoelstra is definitely underrated,” Durant said on Bill Simmons’ podcast yesterday (around the 32-33 minute mark). “He’s one of the best coaches in the league. He’s been one of the best coaches for the last six years.”

While discussing LeBron James’ extensive minutes this season and how he’s being used today compared to past years in Miami, Durant continued to praise Spo.

“I think he put a system in place,” Durant said. “Like LeBron played off the ball a lot in Miami. A lot. And he had the ball a lot too but he played off the ball. He was catching backdoor lobs. He was running in the post. They ran a lot of fast breaks. He was catch-and-shooting threes sometimes… Spoelstra put him in a great position and I think that helped him as as far as keeping his body in tact.”

Ppl who hating in here on Spo prob watched zero to five heat games in total all year. What he did with that team decimated by injuries those first two months was nothing short of incredible. And the unity that second half team had was unlike anything I seen on an NBA team. Once they finally found the right group of guys that worked they had a better record than Cleveland San Antonio and the Warriors for over a two month stretch.

I've never seen an NBA team that looked the way college ball players do comradary wise. They legit loved each other. That end of game presser from SPO showed everything that team stood for. Well fukin deserved.
