I’m going to keep this section brief. Do we really know what Scott Brooks can do? Yes, the guy was successful in Oklahoma City, but you cannot look me in the eyes and tell me that most people couldn’t get a Russel Westbrook and Kevin Durant team to 50+ wins every year. The Wizards definitely upgraded from Randy Wittman by hiring him, but I think the jury is out on this guy as much as it is on Fizdale. However, I’ll give him credit since he was able to deal with egos and Brooks does have playoff series victories over the Spurs, so he has to at least have done a little something right. I’ll have to give Brooks the nod here.

Result: Brooks (for now)

Next: Nate McMillan
