Surely someone would take advantage of the market inefficiency that exists if the difference between the best coaches and average ones with the same roster was worth more than a win or two over an 82 game season.

A plethora of reasons. Coaches salaries aren't made public, no one pays to see a coach behind the bench or a Bob Hartley jersey. Do you know coaches salaries, how can you say teams aren't shelling out for the good ones?

Coaching can make all the difference in the world.
