Worst 5 Coaches In The NBA

Worst 5 Coaches In The NBA

1. LAWRENCE FRANK. New Jersey Nets.



Why does he still have this job? He only had any success because of Jason Kidd and Kenyon Martin -- and they're both LONG GONE. He shows me no skills as a coach whatsoever.

2. MIKE D'ANTONI. New York Knicks.



Still thinks you can run and gun (and play ZERO defense) and win in the NBA. As if Don Nelson and George Karl haven't spent 30 years proving otherwise... And he's not even as good as those two.

3. MIKE DUNLEAVY. Los Angeles Clippers.



Gets to avoid the #1 spot because he was... well, on the bench when the Lakers went to the '91 NBA Finals when Jordan got his first ring.

4. GEORGE KARL. Denver Nuggets.



That Coaching Fraternity is something, right? Tell me going to Carolina isn't still paying dividends for him. Choking like Tony Romo in every big moment certainly isn't the reason he's still coaching an actual NBA Title contender this year.

5. MIKE BROWN. Cleveland Cavaliers.



The Cavs have 4 plays. Five, if you consider that O'Neal and Ilgauskas do the same high low with James -- the same play. He's somehow always looking befuddled as if they have a playbook that rivals Tom Crean's?

Dishonorable Mention: Michael Curry, Don Nelson, Scott Skiles, Vinny Del Negro.
