This was amazing picture, what do you think about The Highest-Paid Coaches? I like while i see this great image The Highest-Paid Coaches.
Phil Jackson
Los Angeles Lakers (NBA)
Annual salary: $10.3 million
Career record: 1,098-460 (.705)
Titles: 10
The whacky Zen master knows what he's doing. Numbers show players joining Jackson's teams improve their play, proving he's more than the beneficiary of coaching a few superstars. He's reportedly close to re-upping with the Lakers for $12 million a year.
Bill Belichick
New England Patriots (NFL)
Annual salary: $7.5 million
Career record: 148-92 (.617)
Titles: 3
After a so-so run in Cleveland in the early 1990s, Belichick has reeled off a 112-48 record with New England since 2000, including nine division titles and four Super Bowl appearances.
Mike Shanahan
Washington Redskins (NFL)
Annual salary: $7 million
Career record: 244-146 (.598)
Titles: 2
Shanahan had a terrific run in Denver, though he missed the playoffs in six of 10 seasons after the retirement of John Elway in 1999. Redskins owner Dan Snyder lured him back to the sidelines after a one-year hiatus with a five-year contract that includes control over the football operation.
Larry Brown
Charlotte Bobcats, (NBA)
Annual salary: $7 million
Career record: 1,318-992
Titles: 1
The Brooklyn, N.Y., native has made 10 professional stops along with college stints at UCLA and Kansas in a coaching career that started in 1972. Brown's 1,089 NBA wins are the fifth-most ever (he won another 229 in the ABA).
Pete Carroll
Seattle Seahawks, (NFL)
Annual salary: $7 million
Career record: 33-31 (.516)
Titles: None
Carroll's NFL resume is light--four years with the New York Jets and New England in the '90s. But the Seahawks are betting that the college juggernaut he built at USC (97-19, two national titles) is a sign he's ready for bigger things.
Mike D'Antoni
New York Knicks (NBA)
Annual salary: $6 million
Career record: 328-275 (.544)
Titles: None
Now halfway through a four-year, $24 million deal, D'Antoni's real test should come in 2010-2011, assuming the Knicks upgrade their talent base after hoarding cap space for the past two years.
Don Nelson
Golden State Warriors (NBA)
Annual salary: $6 million
Career record: 1,335-1,063 (.557)
Titles: None
Nelson has a solid reputation for getting the most out of his teams' talent, though he's never won a ring. His 1,335 career wins since 1977 are the most ever for a head coach.
Gregg Popovich
San Antonio Spurs (NBA)
Annual salary: $6 million
Career record: 736-362 (.670)
Titles: 4
The Air Force Academy grad has never turned in a losing record in his 13 full seasons on the bench.
Jeff Fisher
Tennessee Titans (NFL)
Annual salary: $5.75 million
Career record: 136-110 (.553)
Titles: None
The longest-tenured coach in the NFL, Fisher has been on the Titans' sideline since 1994, when they were still the Houston Oilers. He's won four division titles and suffered a narrow loss to the Rams in the 2000 Super Bowl.
Glenn "Doc" Rivers
Boston Celtics (NBA)
Annual salary: $5.5 million
Career record: 451-380 (.543)
Titles: 1
The locals were unimpressed with Rivers' losing records in two of his first three seasons in Boston. But improved talent and a 2008 championship have him looking a lot smarter.
