	Auerbach was still the all-time leader until just a few years ago. Hard to believe how many people are passing him now.

	@Nuclear_Knuckles Wilkens passed him a while ago, 1995

	It's kind of surprising that 5 of these coaches never won Coach of the Year: Chuck Daly, John McLeod, and Jack Ramsey, Jerry Sloan, and George Karl- considering they won so many games.

	Wilkins is also the all time leader in coaching losses.

	Hm. I would have guessed that Jackson would be the best known, but I wouldn't have predicted that large of a margin over Riley/Brown.

	Jerry Sloan has deserved Coach of the Year repeatedly. Easily the most underrated coach in American team sports today.

	numbers 1 and 2 in NBA coaching losses are both in the top 10. #s 1 and 7)

	Brian, in my world, 1995 is "just a few years ago." :) ... Bryant, please identify all those coaches who won titles without great players. One could be a great coach even without a lot of talent on hand, and one could be a great coach even if one never manages to win it all, but at a certain point 9 titles speaks for itself. If you don't think Jackson is the equal of Auerbach, that's perfectly defensible. To call him an idiot is obviously ludicrous.

	Kevin:	May 28th, 2009 at 22:44 GMT		3 points
	Yeah... Auerback did it with slackers like Cousy, Russell, and Hondo. Pssh! Phil needs to win with the other Staples Center tenants to be worth anything.

	@Bryant-You're trying to tell me that Red was a coaching genius and won with nobody like Russell, Hondo, and Cousy? For the era, it was the most dominant team with the best talent-that's why they won all those titles. It's not like it took a genius to coach a team that was the cream of the crop in the NBA in a time when there were only a handful of good teams.

	I was surpriesed Red has fallen so far on the list. He is already 8th and will be 9th next year and 10th in two years. Motta won 935? I wonder why he didn't stick around another year to pass Red. I can see if he was fired but you'd think some loser team would have taken him just for the publicity.

	John JF, I concur about Sloan. One of the classiest guys too. Problem is that every year he does something amazing (taking the post Malone/Stockton team to .500) some other feel-good story gets COY (Hubie Brown's comeback taking Memphis to the playoffs)

	@beckleyman well guess who scouted, drafted and improved Russell, Cousy, Heinsohn, and Havlicek?? That would be Auerbach. Players like Jordan and Bryant were just handed to Jackson. He also was the first to actively scout black players and changed the game because of it. Not to mention he won 8 more titles as an executive.

	@Bryant-how many titles did Kobe & Michael have before Phil Jackson walked through that door? I find it funny you say Kobe didn't improve under Jackson, because as I remember it pre-Phil Kobe was top 10, maybe top 5-now he's regarded as maybe the best player in the world with Lebron. Jackson has also been able to make guys like Pippen, Odoms, and Gasol and get max production out of them. I never said Red wasn't a good coach or didn't have a good basketball mind, but Jackson is a great tactician in his own right, love him or hate him.
