Best on the bench

NBA's best coaches exceed expectations

Unfortunately, RA isn't mentioned....

Karl, McMillan, D'Antoni, Skiles, Van Gundy (Heat) are listed, with:

Honorable Mention: Rick Carlisle, Pacers (what Carlisle has done with so much turmoil is amazing); Gregg Popovich, Spurs (Spurs are once again one of the league's best; Popovich deserves credit); Mike Fratello, Grizzlies (injuries to Pau Gasol and others hasn't brought the Grizzlies down so much thanks to Fratello's leadership).

Talk about injuries (and trades, for that matter) and no RA consideration?!?!? WTF?

it aint just sportswriters. sometimes during nationally televised games, the kings are completely forgotten by the tv analysts. its like just one team's playing or something. in the kings-lakers game on abc, hubie seemed to be the only one commenting on the kings demolition of the lakers. everybody else just wanted to talk about the lakers problems. its really annoying.

well I am a bit surprised that RA wasn't in the honrable mentions category i mean he's right there with Fratello and Carlisle...as far as injuries go plus we had two major trades and still holding it together...and no honorable mention I am rather surprised by this...

I especially liked the way the threw up a graphic on how many injuries the lakers have had this year and never even spoke of the Kings injuries.
