Last night’s victory at Madison Square Garden elevated Gregg Popovich’s win total to 1,176, one more than former Spurs assistant and one-time point guard George Karl. Karl, the 2012-13 NBA Coach of the Year, amassed his stellar record over a span of 27 seasons with 6 different NBA teams. Unfortunately for Karl, he never won an NBA title.
So there you have it, Pop is solely in the #4 spot. Next on the list- Pat Riley whose coaching accomplishments most closely resemble Coach Pop. 5 Championships and 3 Coach of the Year honors mirror one another.
