Spo could have a Coty case also. Lots of development

I'd for sure have him over budenholzer.

Spo, Donovan and Nurse could all have a good case made.

i don't think donovan has as good as case since he arguably got a better roster and cp3 has made every roster he's ever played for look decently coached (remember when byron scott got coty?)

Hor dang those scorelines. I only got to watch some of it, but Lebron having that many FTs and only getting 3 calls against him is totally bs. He has more than 3 offensive fouls I saw in limited time.

That Luka guy is pretty good even on one leg.

how do you not have george or kawhi on luka at the end of the game there, that's just poor coaching imo.

Nah Kawhi was on him but he switched with Jackson and for some reason didn't run back. Probably gassed.

nick nurse winning is a no brainer, pretty much every preseason prediction had raptors around 500 and fighting for the bottom of the playoff seeds. but to point out, the coaches voted for budenholzer and donovan. i can see donovan but cant understand why ppl would vote for budenholzer this year. bucks did what they were expected to do. one theory was that the coaches didnt want to vote for nurse because they didnt like how casey was fired after winning the award

pacers/heat series is over, oladipo didnt play well, and MJ warren went back to playing like TJ warren.


The Raptors developmental framework was in place before Nurse took over as head coach.

The fact that a bunch of media people who don't watch the team very much made a bunch of bad predictions doesn't mean much. Go back and listen to some of their "reasoning" and its clear they don't watch the team or even put much thought into their projections.

I listened to two of the guys who predicted the Raptors wouldn't make they playoffs. They both don't watch the games. Dennis Scott and Dave Jacoby. If you have a guy who thoroughly covers the team and has a comprehensive explanation for why the Raptors wouldn't make the playoffs this year I'd love to see it. Post it if you can.

In 2019 the Raptors were 17-5 without Kawhi. ON top of that, Leonard coasted through the 60 games he played. Before Nurse was head coach workaholics Norm Powell, Pascal Siakam and FVV were constantly improving. They continued to improve under Nurse. Gasol all year long is better than half a year of JV and half a year of Gasol. FVV was taking Green's minutes away from him in the 3rd and 4th rounds of the playoffs. Its no surprise to any one who watches both these guys play that 2020 FVV is better than 2020 Danny Green.

The Raptors management team continues to pull no name players from seemingly out of nowhere and turns them into viable NBA players who work extremely hard. Nurse deserves some credit but no where near all of the credit for this.

Nurse is a good coach working within a great framework built by Masai Ujiri and Bobby Webster. He doesn't deserve coach of the year though.

The fact a Raptors coach has won COY two out of the last three years demonstrates this is more of an organization wide thing than Casey and/or NUrse being the best coach in the league.

For my money.. Masai Ujiri is the executive of the year... and it ain't close. This is a big reason why the Raptors have had 2 COYs in 3 years.
