Who are the best Xs and Os coaches?

I always read of how creative Don Nelson and Rick Adleman are/were.

And even D'Antoni.

Chuck Daly was an excellent X and O head coach. Larry Brown was as well.

Best active is Pop by a mile. He's one of the best ever.

Hubie, Dr. Jack as mentioned. Daly was pretty good too, and Riley had his moments.

Phil Jackson was a phenomenal coach, arguably the greatest ever, but he wasn't an Xs and Os guy. He was a master at managing personalities.

Well, when Spo wins 45-50 games this year, without LeBron he will get his due, especially when the last team LeBron left went 19-63.

He did win 47 and 43 games with Udonis Haslem as his second best player.
