Not sure how out of all the options, OP chose Wilkens. Was it not Lenny that coached us into the Second Round? And before Mitchell, was our winningest coach? Lenny is the only Raptors Coach to have a playoff record that is anywhere close to respectable at 8-9.
Wikipedia has a nice breakdown:

KO definitely takes it. Maybe Malone, but his team was horrible to look at on paper. Let alone the floor.
KO's offensive philosophy? just give the ball to VC and get out of the way. That's exactly what he said during one of his press conference lol. And that's exactly how the Raps played offense under him lol.
Btw, my vote for the worst coach is Triano.Mamba Mentality

So hard for me to remember that year. It was terrible to watch. We had just traded Antonio Davis and JYD for Jalen Rose. We had no rim protection at all. Our bigs were Donyell Marshall and a stickman-rookie Bosh, who got shafted by having to play center in a brutal, grind-it-out style.
God. NBA basketball overall is so much funner to watch now.
Edit: The more I reflect on how this team was coached and managed, I can't blame Vince for wanting out. At all.Last edited by bryan colangelo; Thu Dec 11, 2014, 01:21 AM.
