Pablo Laso has coached Real Madrid to victory in their five Endesa League games in January, which has earned him the Best Coach Trophy of the Spanish Basketball Coaches Association this month.
Laso previously won the award in November and deserved it again in January for defeating Barcelona Regal (78-74), UCAM Murcia (60-91), Lucentum Alicante (86-92), Caja Laboral (84-73), and Baloncesto Fuenlabrada (57-79).
His victories over Cajasol, Unicaja, Lagun Aro and CAI Zaragoza in November allowed him to be tied with Barcelona's Xavi Pascual in the top spot, but he's had no competition this time around. He is followed in the ranking by Xavi Pascual (Regal FC Barcelona) and Sito Alonso (Lagun Aro GBC) with four victories each, and by Jose Luis Abos (CAI Zaragoza) with three.
