IMO Sarver did the right thing for him and his organization. Maybe the medium can be questioned but at the end of the day, I think Suns fans appreciate it. The Spurs meanwhile will continue to do what they do. We are used to it as Spurs fans and actually appreciate what Pop does to save the players and for the most part - the results speak for themself.
However not everyone in the league agrees with it. I was listening to the radio this morning and as Jerry Stackhouse says, and I'm paraphrasing "the Spurs are above the NBA, they do what they do" - and he didn't mean it, from what I understand, in a positive way. Some see it as arrogance, we on the other hand see it differently.
