Our 2017 Management Rankings continue with a look at the NBA's 30 current head coaches -- the league's on-court decision-makers.

On Tuesday, we unveiled our overall management rankings. On Thursday, we'll break down our rankings of team presidents and GMs. On Friday, we'll reveal our owner rankings.

Here's how the 30 coaches rank, according to our panel:
