Definitely in the top 4, possible higher. My criteria is whether a coach gets the most out of the talent he's given.
This season the Jazz were first in offensive rating and 10th in defensive rating, both ahead of the Bucks. Whose talent would you rather have? Snyder is particularly known as an offensive mastermind, by none other than Bud.
Has never made it out of the second round, especially last two years where they had the clearly better team. Also the teams he’s lost too went on to be cannon fodder for the real elite teams.
His time and talent level in Utah is very comparable to buds time and talent in Atlanta, I would take the last two jazz rosters over those hawks too.
Your analysis of the Jazz talent is certainly different than mine. Snyder has done more with less than most coaches in the league.
And unless you can tell me what he did wrong (as I have detailed about Bud), then looking at playoff record doesn't move me at all.
I will repeat again, the only sensible criteria in evaluating a coach is what he does with the talent he has. This year he has the top rated offense and the tenth rated defense, well above the Bucks, who have a more talented team.
A coach can be great and not make the playoffs and a mediocre coach can win a championship (and no, I don't think Bud is a mediocre coach).It's why I think Thibs has done the best coaching job in the NBA the last two seasons. He has, in my view, one of the least talented teams in the league.
Would I want Thibs coaching the Bucks? heck no, but that's another discussion.
