Brooklyn Nets coach won the award of the month for December after a great campaign and with a 12-game undefeated streak, the longest in the NBA today
The technician of Brooklyn Nets, Jacque Vaughnwas elected by NBA as the best coach in the eastern conference last December. The coach who took charge of the New York team in November managed to put together a great streak and just in the last month of the year, accumulated a record of 12 wins and only one defeat.
Vaughn was already part of the Brooklyn commission, but only coached the team on an interim basis, receiving the first opportunity in 2020, during the bubble created by the NBA in the pandemic. In his second spell in charge of the team, he entered on an interim basis again and after the failure to negotiate with Ime Udoka, the general manager of the Nets chose to hire Jacque, a decision that was more than right.

In addition to the great performance in December, in the last 17 games, the team has 16 wins, achieving a fantastic recovery on the leaderboard, as Brooklyn started the season in a troubled way and with a record of 1-5, today the campaign is 25 -12, in addition to occupying the second place in the eastern conference and being able to equal the record of the leader Boston Celtics in case of victory against Bulls on the night of this Wednesday, 04.
The Nets had the season seriously threatened with the command of Steve Nash, with almost no offensive repertoire and with the stars of the franchise dissatisfied, with several rumors of possible exchange requests, mainly coming from Kevin Durant, considered the star of the franchise alongside Kyrie Irving.
It is not yet known whether the brilliant campaign will continue, but currently the team has the best streak in the NBA in the last few matches and players are starting to take the top of fundamental aspects in basketball, such as taking advantage of shots. (Claxton), three point shots (Watanabe) and free throws (Durant).
