The team's system is an incredible one that emphasizes effort and hustle over anything else. While the team were unable to reach the Eastern Conference fFnals this year, it needs to be mentioned that their primary option, Kawhi Leonard, was traded away, which was a huge blow to the team.

#3 Brad Stevens (Boston Celtics)
Brad Stevens has transformed the Boston Celtics. After dealing away their best player in Kyrie Irving, the team became arguably more dominant than they were with the Brooklyn Nets player
Working around a trio of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kemba Walker, the Celtics marched through the 2020 NBa playoffs to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals, where they lost a very close series in seven games.
The impact of Brad Stevens on the Celtics has been incredibly significant, and he could just be the head coach to win the franchise their next NBA Championship.
#2 Frank Vogel (LA Lakers)
In this current era of basketball, where pace and space are absolutely essential to the success of an NBA franchise, Frank Vogel has managed to win an NBA Championship with a team that ranks poorly in both categories.
Considering the strengths of his team, Vogel emphasized on interior defense and an offense that slowed the game down to the LA Lakers' liking. While it may seem like the obvious move to make now, many head coaches in the NBA have faltered while trying to do the same.
With Frank Vogel's unique coaching style and the crop of players the LA Lakers currently have, the franchise could win several more NBA titles in the next few years.
#1 Erik Spoelstra
Erik Spoelstra is arguably the top active head coach in the NBA at the moment. The 49-year-old was absolutely outstanding last season, as he took an unassuming Miami Heat team all the way to the 2020 NBA Finals, where they went to six games against the LA Lakers.
Many players have come out and spoken highly about Spoelstra's credentials as a head coach and the winning culture he has imbibed in his team.
The amazing level of tactical thinking and his never-say-die attitude help his team pull off the impossible, attributes that make him the best head coach in the NBA now.
