Coaches are usually assessed (fairly or not) on wins, and losses. How would you rate the coaches of the last (8) NBA teams?
As of 12/20/16
Team W L Los Angeles Lakers 11 19 Miami Heat 9 19 New Orleans Pelicans 9 20 Minnesota Timberwolves 8 19 Phoenix Suns 8 20 Brooklyn Nets 7 19 Philadelphia 76ers 7 20 Dallas Mavericks 7 21

I've always admired the 76ers coach for keeping his guys playing hard even when they are obviously overmatched. Hopefully they will eventually give him some talent. Would love to see what he could do with a good team.
Thibs needs more time in Minny. I think people were jumping the gun on Minny a bit. A lot of folks had them in the playoffs in the west. they are still way too young to have lasting success. The NBA is a league where veteran laden teams win. And the wolves are crazy young. Their three leading scorers are all 21 years old. that's crazy.
Sprol is a solid coach. Maybe eventually it'll be time for him to go to another team, but I definitely think he's proven himself in the nba.
After what Dallas did in 2011, Carlisle will always have a lifetime pass with me. That may have been the most masterful coaching job i've ever seen in a seven game series. that said, maybe his voice is getting tiring for the players there. and the reality is that's just not a very good team. their two best players are wesley matthews and harrison barnes. that's a poor core. but Carlisle is a top 5 coach in my eyes.
I dont really have an opinion on the other 4.
