This makes no sense at all to me.

It's in Philly, they have been handing out these awards for 16 years, and only now do they recognize one of the greatest BB coaches of all time????? Oy vey!!!!!

And he was a good ABA player to boot. He has Olympic Gold as both a player and coach.

Plus he might be the only person to play at Moody as a professional as then later HC a team there.
