• "of the National Basketball Association"-->in the National Basketball Association
• "the team for 328 games over four seasons" Comparative quantities should be written out the same way.
• "regular season games"-->regular-season games (multiple occurences)
• "Stan Van Gundy is the team's current coach, coaching his first game at the beginning of the 2007–08 season."-->Stan Van Gundy has been the team's current coach since the beginning of the 2007–08 season.
• "regular season winning percentage"-->regular-season winning percentage
• Can we have a more descriptive image caption?
• "A running total of the number of coaches of the Pistons." No, the Magic.
• Ref 1—Are you sure that you retrieved the info in 2060?
• "Turner Sports Interactive, Inc" is the publisher of the NBA.com refs, see ref 1 List of Washington Wizards head coaches. Dabomb87 (talk) 02:34, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Okay done. The "328" and the "four" aren't being compared; it's "games" vs. "seasons", not "games" vs. "games". Why is the dash needed? It looks a bit strange, too. Gary King (talk) 03:46, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

From WP:MOSNUM "Comparable quantities should be all spelled out or all figures: we may write either 5 cats and 32 dogs or five cats and thirty-two dogs, not five cats and 32 dogs." Do you mean the hyphen? It is used for compound adjectives. Dabomb87 (talk) 13:10, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

A comment from Rambo's Revenge (talk · contribs)

• The note [N 1] says that "A running total of the number of coaches of the Magic. Thus, any coach who has two or more separate terms as head coach is only counted once." However the table conflicts this by listing Brian Hill as coach 2 & as coach 8. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 16:46, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

  Ah; fixed Gary King (talk) 16:54, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
