Sam Mitchell is always wearing some Original Kings of Comedy-ass suits. John Thompson at Georgetown back in the day would have some real nice suits.

Re: Best/worst dressed coaches of all time
Everyone talks about Sam Mitchell as some fashion leader, but his horrible double breasted zoot suits were always way too big. Now that he's not a coach, he's dressing better, but back with the Raptors, he was a real eye sore on the court

Those are not even that bad, to put things into perspective:
My personal favorites being front row 3rd and 5th from left (sorry, I don't recognize the players). The latter "almost" makes it work with a friendly smile and confidence, but the 3rd from left looks like he just went to a store with ready-made suits, asked for the biggest that they have ever done and proceeded to checkout.
And as ridiculous as this looks now, the tight form fitting suits would have looked ridiculous then. This picture in 2003 was normal. Those were my high school days and everyone wore stuff that was too big for them because the baggy look was in. Depending on body type I'd almost prefer it to this generation of clothes that "fit" but in actuality are usually too tight for the person trying to squeeze into them.
I hear you but there is baggy and there is just plain wrong. The stuff Heinrich and the guy next to Melo is wearing has never been "in" anywhere I lived or visited but I've spent most of my time in Europe. The dude in the middle front looks like he has a suit tailor made by Ermenegildo Zegna himself but it would look baggy today.
