Has there ever been a "carry job" in terms of coaching in the NBA? (alien.top)

The team doesn't even have to have won the championship, but has a team in NBA history overachieved notably due to coaching? How did the coaching impact the team's rotations, player roles, defensive schemes, etc?

It's such a bummer he isn't a coach anymore. I'm sure being a front office guy is way more chill, but he was so good.

Other coaches started figuring him out AND stealing all of atos. I think he peaked. You can only be so original for so long before the league copies you. I see him as similar to dantoni and thibs in that way where the rest of the league uses their tactics and sets and your advantage goes away.
