Coach of the Year: Brian Agler (LA Sparks)

The Los Angeles Sparks are 21-3 on the season, and Brian Agler has this team more unified than ever.

He has every player understanding their role and improving their weaknesses. With two MVP candidates on their squad, the Sparks are trying to win their first championship since winning back-to-back titles in 2001-02. Brian Agler, the winningest coach in women’s professional basketball history, has the Sparks on the right path.

"[via ESPN] “We have a mature team, and they understand what it’s going to take on both ends of the floor,” Toliver said. “I think Coach has done a really good job of preaching the ‘little things’ to us. We attack each day with just wanting to get better. We don’t take wins for granted; we know how hard it is to get them in this league.”"

Giving the MVP award to a player on the league’s best team seems like the right move.
