#2 Dwane Casey
The Detroit Pistons got lucky in landing a reigning Coach of the Year award winner right after firing a head coach and President of Basketball Operations who'd ensured that they remained mired in mediocrity and made the playoffs only once in his time there. Dwane Casey is the same coach who came up with the Mavericks' defensive schemes during their title-winning 2011 playoff run.
Despite Casey's failings at orchestrating good offensive schemes in the playoffs, the Raptors knew they were firing a head coach who has consistently been one of the best defensive coaches in the world. The Raptors were the only team to finish top 5 in both offensive as well as defensive rating last season per nba.com, and were the #1 seed with the second best record in the league prior to the playoffs.
Guess the Lakers players!
