Why do you think Vogel is a good coach?

2732834, But you named a dude with 1 ring and 0 rings above a dude with 3

2732845, Vogel also had 3 HOFers on the team.
Posted by Frank Longo, Fri Feb-26-21 03:19 PM
And his resume outside of that one season has been *way* worse than Spo's without HOFers.

But you know. It is what it is.
2732854, I guess you're trying to count Dwight but that wasn't exactly his prime

2732852, I forgot to number but my list is reverse order

2732863, I’m talking about Spo

2732868, I just think Spo and non-Lebron/Wade Miami are overrated, l just think...

last year in the bubble they were a good team that had a great run, not unlike the 2011 Mavericks
2732872, Rings matter.
Posted by Ryan M, Fri Feb-26-21 07:34 PM
2732874, They do!

2732916, But not THAT much right?

2732922, I feel like Vogel's most recent ring in the bubble with a team that was...

favored and didn't fall off like others did. I also credit Spo with getting his team to play way over their heads in the bubble. Just not as much. In some ways its easier to come in as the 5 or 6 seed upstart when nobody is gunning for than when you are the favorite.
2732923, That’s why 5/6 seeds make the Finals more often than the favorites.

2732927, Kerr coached the most talented team of all time.

But Spo is overrated.

Okay.
2732934, He’s overrated too but he won 3 out 4 recently so it’s harder to argue...

Pop
Doc
Spoelstra
Kerr
Nurse
2732750, I hear a lot about Spo prior to last season what has he ever done....
Posted by ThaTruth, Thu Feb-25-21 01:54 PM
without 3 HOF'ers on his team?

and Nick Nurse had so much fall into his lap from Kawhi, to Lebron going west, to KD's achilles, now he's a certified genius and his assistants are getting jobs they don't deserve.
2732764, So outside of making the Finals without 3 HOFers on his team...
Posted by Frank Longo, Thu Feb-25-21 02:44 PM
... what has Spo ever done without 3 HOFers on his team?

Am I reading that question correctly?
2732765, LMAO

2732769, last year guys played out of their minds in the bubble, particularly...
Posted by ThaTruth, Thu Feb-25-21 03:03 PM
young guys like Herro and Robinson, also Jimmy having 40 point triple doubles in the Finals something he has never done at any point in his career.

So yes, last year's playoff was a unique circumstance on many levels, outside of that 1 bubble postseason what has he done without 3 HOF'ers on his team? That same team is currently 2 games under .500 this season. Should we look at him as a bubble coach?
2732773, so winning and losing matters less than *your* perception of how?
Posted by cgonz00cc, Thu Feb-25-21 03:09 PM
thats rather arrogant lmao
2732776, if you want to put the bubble guy in your top 5 that's fine I'm just...
Posted by ThaTruth, Thu Feb-25-21 03:25 PM
asking peoples' opinions
2732847, Vogel never won a title outside of the bubble.
Posted by Frank Longo, Fri Feb-26-21 03:20 PM
And his record without multiple HOFers is easily worse than Spo's. But you have him in your Top 5--

WHY AM I DOING THIS? WHY DO I BOTHER?
2732853, honestly I'm not a huge Vogel fan either but he does have the most recent title...
Posted by ThaTruth, Fri Feb-26-21 03:48 PM
recent title I won't argue hard for him either way
2732818, "prior to last season"

2732889, Doc is very obviously doing the best job and it's not very close.

He immediately added his signature to that team,
and the message has landed
