I know the season isn't over and this is premature. Just trying to get a feel for what the public thinks.
My top three are Stevens, Kerr, and Budenholzer.

Kerr I think wins hands down.

Hard to not go with Kerr right now.
Posted on 3/18/15 at 10:51 pm to Patton
Bud, Kerr, Stevens in that order.

And I think it's by a mile at the moment.

Bud... Did way more with way less

I can understand an argument for Kerr, not that it should be anywhere close to unanimous though.
Kerr took a very good 50 win team and elevated them to an elite team. While he deserves a lot of credit, here are the primary two reasons why I think he's getting too much credit.
1. His young players got a year more experience and that has contributed to the improvement.
2. Mark Jackson was an embarrassingly awful head coach. If you take Jackson away and replace him with an average coach, the results would be positive. The Sports Illustrated article said Jackson didn't watch video and was an egomaniac. Just watching them, they played street ball on offense.
Here's what Bud has done:
He's taken a team that everyone had pegged as destined for eternal mediocrity and made them elite by getting them to play an attractive style of basketball. The only real difference between this and last year is Horford is healthy, but he's done an outstanding job getting players to accept their roles, as has Kerr.
I give Bud the edge primarily because Mark Jackson sucked.

I like to imagine how each of those guys would coach with each other's teams.
I don't know if Kerr would have the success he is enjoying with the team in Boston. Kerr would probably have a good but not great team in ATL.
Bud is a beast and I think would have close to the numbers that Stevens has put up with the Cs. He would match or improve on what Kerr has done.
I think Stevens would have a little less then both other coaches with their respective teams.
Based on my own opinion. I like Bud in this race.

Stevens? Come on bro. Kidd is much more deserving than Stevens.
Celts are 30-36. Frank Vogel would be my pick for COY if we're picking one from a 30-36 team.

Look, Steve Kerr has done a great job....but he inherited a great team.
Mike Budenholzer of the Atlanta Hawks went from 38-44 to, right now, only 14 losses, with everyone saying there is no star on that team like other teams have. This is why Budenholzer will be the NBA Coach of the Year. Ain't even close.
And I'm not a Hawk's fan. It is what it is.

The Celtics traded away two of their best players this year and got better. Brad has coached his arse off all year. Go look at that roster. He has them in the playoffs. It's impressive to me. I'll admit I'm biais.
