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?

there was a lot of Brad Stevens slurping during 2018, and rightfully so, first year Tatum, second year Jaylen, and young Rozier as your three leading scorers, Horford and Morris as your vets, and you're like a bad 6 mins away from the finals? not bad

Even to have a 1 seeded team in 2016 with IT. There 2nd best offensive weapon was Avery Bradley.

IT, Bradley, Crowder, Amir and Al are all small for their positions but Brad managed it to work. Shame Brad and Spo doesn't have a COY award

Brad was robbed in 2018 given the injuries. For some reason voters seemed to have a grudge against him, giving the award to Duane Casey of all people
