It's a shame but it seems to me that coaches of elite teams don't get credit for keeping things together and ensuring that the talent is maximized and the team dominates. There's something to be said for coaching a team to meet or surpass high expectations as it's generally much easier for a first year coach to come into what was a disaster the year before and coach a team to surpass low expectations but very difficult and high pressure to coach a team at or above high expectations.
