BEST GUY: Rudy Tomjanovich. And being in sports, by that we mean which one of these 29 would you like to go out and have a beer with. While I'm sure it would be fascinating to hear Phil Jackson drone on about the inner implications of Zen Buddism vs. neo-Nazi fascism, the coach whom you'd really like to hang with is Houston's Tomjanovich. Well, at least when he was drinking and smoking. Even now, though, he is a great guy, a regular Joe who, despite his success, seems to have time for everyone. We give a close runner-up to Jerry Sloan -- but, of course, he too has conquered his vices. When did the NBA become the feel-good league? We'll give second runners-up to Paul Silas and Frank Johnson, both good guys.
