Congrats to Coach Gregg Popovich on his 1000th win. He is the only coach in NBA history to reach that milestone with only one team in fewer than 1500 games. He also bagged five championships along the way. You da man, Pop! :toast

GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[pookenstein]

Becky already with her hand on Tony's Parker. Probably massaging Patty's balls from behind as well...

But seriously: congrats Pop! Nice to see George in the pic.

[boutons_deux]

Popovich Earns Win No. 1,000 as Spurs Get Past Pacers 95-93

And it came on the most fitting stage of all for an Indiana native. Popovich was born in the northwestern part of the Hoosier State and grew up playing high school basketball in Merrillville, Indiana.

And that was cool seeing Hill out celebrating with the guys

Remember when Phil Jackson used to refer to Pop and his coaching staff as "the simulator crew"? Not bad for a 'simulator crew'.


Congrats, Pop! Well deserved!

Congrats to Coach Pop. We are some spoiled basketball fans. The think I like about him the most is that he has this aire of not caring about the accolades or regular season shit. He knows it's about his players, the city and the Championships. Here's to many more!:bobo

[boutons_deux]

I was surprised Sean Elliott wasn't there

[phxspurfan]

Will we get Hill back!?

I was surprised Sean Elliott wasn't there

he was not traveling with the team I think

Saw that picture and knew that this post was inevitable.

[FromWayDowntown]

Really telling to see so many former Spurs take the time to note Pop's accomplishment and congratulate him for it. Seems to be the clearest indication of the respect and admiration he has among NBA players.

[BatManu20]

Pop looks like he's had one too many glasses of wine in this one :lol

Hats off to Pop

Best coach in all of sports.....ever....and likely an even better person.

[quentin_compson]

Great achievement! :toast

But what really cements Pop's status as an all-time great coach, I think, is that he was able to completely change the style, the whole make of the team (if we compare, say, the Spurs of 2004 with those of 2014) while still holding on to the same core of players.

[therealtruth]

I am guessing that tweet will help R. Williams chances of sticking on.

Tony is 6"2 and he looks like a veritable child. :lol

[timtonymanu]

Didn't see the group pic until now.

Nice that George and Mahinmi joined in as well.

[Silver&Black]

Saw on ESPN that Pop has a winning record against every single NBA team. This is just crazy to think about....

They also said he's the only one. I think about Phil Jackson and Pat Riley....what teams do they have a losing record against? Anybody know off the top of their head?

[houston spurs fan]

The George Karl tweet bothers me. He is the Lenny Wilkenson of today's NBA...

1. DET: 20-15 (+5)
2. MIL: 20-14 (+6)

I would have sworn Van Exel had negative win shares with the Spurs, which would make this tweet false (and hilarious). But he had 1.4 win shares with the Spurs in 05-06.
