The 'NBA Coach of the Year' quiz

Many expected big things out of the upstart Oklahoma City Thunder this season, but few expected them to finish as the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. Over the weekend, their coach, Mark Daigneault, was rewarded with his first NBA Coach of the Year Award. Now in his fourth season with the Thunder, the 39-year-old Daigneault has helped the team improve its win total every year, and this season, behind MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the team established itself as a powerhouse in the highly competitive West, one that has eyes on a much bigger prize this postseason. 

Which brings us to today's quiz of the day. In honor of Daigneault taking home some hardware, we want to see how many NBA Coach of the Year winners since the 1979-80 season you can name in five minutes.

Good luck!
