"In his illustrious career, Riley has guided his teams to at least 50 wins in a season an NBA-record 17 times, six more than the closest coach in league history. He also has registered an NBA-record seven 60-win seasons, accomplishing the milestone with each of the three franchises he has guided. "

That's amazing in itself.

Dick Motta is the best

I still say he's the best coach in NBA history.

Well, he's certainly proving his greatness in this Final series. He's like you Nuke, he's great!!

Wow, the first 3 names to pop in my head were Riley, Auerback and Motta.

Mr Big · « **Reply #8 on:** June 20, 2006, 09:55:34 PM »

For his carreer, he has averaged over 54 wins a season.

Who even comes close?

Statistically he is the greatest, it's really an opinionated thing though, Big boy.
