The Minnesota Timberwolves Chris Finch might deserve it thus far for dramatically exceeding expectations and seemingly making a very tough fit in Gobert work with their personnel, which a lot of people weren't expecting to see this year.

I don't know that Nick Nurse would win the COY award in the traditional sense of exceeding expectations more than any other coach, but I'd like to see him win it as a giant fuck-you to the basketball terrorist known as Doc Rivers.

That said, it's a long season, and a lot of things could be different in a couple of months.

Raymond felton. Because he'd eat his opponent.

Are you trying to channel Harrison Bergeron? Nothing is ever going to forcibly make the NBA competitive landscape completely equal.

Every NBA city has different competitive attributes for free agents. Some cities are cold (Chicago, Milwaukee, Boston, Toronto). Some cities are warm and have beaches (Miami). Some have lots of fun for young adults (wherever the best strippers are, IDK ask Harden). Others are better for raising families (Orlando? Utah? OKC?). Some have better tax incentives (teams in states without income tax). Others have better career incentives (you'd probably want to live in LA if you want to be an actor, or maybe GS or NY if you want to be in tech or finance). Others have a richer NBA history (Boston, Lakers). Some cities are good at throwing batteries (Philly).

Why not let players choose what matters to them rather than somehow trying (and failing) to force some arbitrary matter of equality?
