My Take
What I admire about Nate McMillan is the quiet durability of his career. From Raleigh to North Carolina State, then a steady NBA playing career built on defense rather than flash, he became exactly the kind of coach you would expect: dependable, respected, never desperate for the spotlight. Seattle, Portland, Indiana, and now an assistant role with the Lakers, he keeps showing up and contributing. I have a soft spot for people who win through trust and longevity instead of theatrics. McMillan strikes me as a craftsman of the game, and that earns my lasting respect.
