What up Pink Pink,

i think of All-time my two coaches would be:

1)  John Wooden- greatest college coach and possilby greatest coach at any level.  Not only produced great ball players but great men and even over the age of 90- he is still a great influence on many coaches coaching today.

2)  Phil Jackson- Not only does he have 9 titles- but he's done it 3 peating 3 times.  That's not easy to do.  Yes he has coached: MJ, Kobe and Shaq- but coaching matters in a 3 peat and to do it 3 times is amazing.  He's always also been able to handle troubled players like:  Dennis Rodman- which isn't easy.

My top two coaches would have to be Phil Jackson and Gregg Popavich. There are the best coaches that I have ever seen. They lead their teams in great ways. Phil Jackson won 6 championships with the Bulls and he lead the Lakers to the NBA Finals. Gregg Popavich has made the Spurs into a dynasty. The Spurs have won many championships with Gregg Popavich as head coach. He also has a great relationship with his players off the court. Gregg Popavich and Tim Duncan are best friends, just to let everyone know. During each off-season, they take a vacation to somewhere nice with each other. These are the reasons why they are my top 2 coaches.

Don Haskins - Collegiate Level - Haskins declared the Emancipation Proclamation of sports. If not for him, race relation would be different today. Sports did a lot for the acceptance for people of color.  And Don Haskins is responsible for showing that it's not about race.

Dean Smith - Collegiate Level - He make many players into great players and coach coaches.  There is no other coach who touched and created this level of greatness in the sport of basketball.

Phil Jackson cuz he looks like Colonel Sanders from KFC. He likes triangle offense. His off court des? Well, he has -rich- girlfriend in her -20s-.

Larry Brown. He made defense look entertaining.

i think george karl ( sonics, bucks, nuggets ) and byron scott ( nets and hornets ) are both good as they are able to transform any team to be better and in such short time . they havent made it to final level of getting a ring but theyve done very well. they are not the best and have faced failures but i think theyve done fairly well overall.
