Chuck Daly (1930-2009)

Chuck Daly was the greatest coach in Pistons' History and one of the greatest coaches in the history of Detroit sports. He got the best out of his players and even kept Dennis Rodman under control. As a result of his coaching style, Detroit won 2 Titles (1989 and 1990) and really beat those Lakers in 1988 if it weren't for a phantom call in Game 7. Daly's stylish suits earned him the nickname "Daddy Rich" from John Sally. Daly may have moved to Florida in his retirement, but he remained in Detroit in spirit. The best tribute came from Charles Barkley: "I never understood how a great man, a nice guy coached the Bad Boys."
