Using a nice run as evidence that he's a good coach is a fallacy in and of itself.

I seriously doubt Monty uses the players that are succeeding right now in this way if not forced to do so by circumstances. These aren't his tinkering making the team better. It's luck that the injuries are starting to force him to put players in roles that are best suited at playing.

I can almost guarantee if this team is healthy, people wouldn't be happy with the product Monty puts out.

Idiotic statement is idiotic.

I can almost guarantee you the exact opposite. Obvious choices are obvious, when this team was fully healthy they had a winning record (9-6 or .600) and played much differently, they were top 10 in pace and chose offense over defense. The problem comes when the choices aren't so obvious and Monty goes with trusted (veteran) over unfamiliar (you damn kids and your small ball need to get off of my lawn!).

I don't have much faith if we end up in a chess match against a top coach in a playoff series, but this team is talented enough when healthy to overcome many of its coaching deficiencies and play exciting basketball on the way to a first round exit.
