...despite missing most of the games this season. He sat out the first 43 games on the bench, though he was involved, to varying degrees, in scouting, game-planning, practices, etc.
Golden State finished 34-5 this year after Kerr returned in January,
Anyone else feel this is a clear makeup call for Kerr missing out on Coach of the Year last season when GSW won MVP, Top Record and the NBA Title?

This is absolutely rewarding him for last year as well.
I get that all of Walton's wins in the record book transfer over to Kerr, but a coach who didn't coach for more than half the season should not be named COY.
I would've given it to Popovic.

Pop or Terry Stotts would have been my vote. Stotts lost 4 freaking starters and very well might go to the second round(or further honestly)

Stotts did a fantastic job for sure.
I'm very happy for him and the success that's he's had due to the loss on the team.
