Because an award that has been won by such currently unemployed luminaries as Sam Mitchell, Avery Johnson, and Byron Scott may not be the best gauge of success. Oh, and let's not forget Mike Brown. He must be a better coach than Jerry Sloan, too.
If we keep winning games maybe at end of the season you will add your friend Corbin in that list too...
Don't get me wrong, I respect Sloan! But granted that you say that he didn't coach enough top 10 draft picks, it means that his successes have often been miraculous, considering the poor material at his disposal....that's why it is surprising he never received the COY award.
