Coach of the Year: Scott Skiles, Orlando Magic

Many people would look at this pick and laugh at it, but Scott Skiles has the coaching ability to bring the Magic back into playoff contention.

Skiles has made the playoffs six times as a coach and, in the weak Eastern Conference, Skiles can return to the playoffs for a seventh time. If players like Nikola Vucevic, Tobias Harris, and Victor Oladipo can maximize their potential, then this Magic team could be the biggest surprise in the NBA next season.

Honorable Mention: Kevin McHale, Houston Rockets
