Coach of the year 2021/2022
Monty Williams (Phoenix Suns)
In just two seasons, Monty Williams lifted the Suns from a 19-win team to the NBA Finals a remarkable achievement given the franchise’s once exposed outlook.
The addition of Chris Paul and the continued development of Devin Booker, Mikal Bridges and Deandre Ayton has turned the Suns into legitimate title contenders and perhaps way ahead of schedule.
Now they have a taste of the big stage, the Suns young players have been emboldened by the trust Williams showed in them during their playoff run. Sure, Paul will be one year older, but I expect Phoenix will prove last season was no fluke.
Monty Williams has turned around a lottery team into a top contender this season. They have ascended towards the top of the Western Conference with a 30-14 record and are three games behind the conference-leading Utah Jazz at the moment.
It all began with the Phoenix Suns’ splendid 8-0 run in the bubble last year that made them an attractive destination for veteran elite Chris Paul. Since then, the Phoenix Suns have taken the league by storm.
They are looking primed to end their playoff drought this campaign and could pull off an upset in the 2021/2022 playoffs. The Suns have struck a balance at both ends of the court and are looking better and better with every passing game. The mutual respect and admiration between CP3 and coach Williams have transformed the Phoenix Suns into an emerging powerhouse in the West.
Williams deserves much credit for their quick turnaround, making him one of the prime candidates for this season NBA Coach of the Year award.
