I love Robinson. My favorite Spur of all time.
With that being said? Are you serious?
I don't think he'd be a good coach. He doesn't have 'it'. He's said it before- he doesn't have the passion needed for it.
So. NO.
Would anyone else like to see Robinson become an assistant coach,or replace Pops when he's gone?I think he'd make a great coach.

I am serious,I think he'd make the players understand who's boss.
He's never shown any interest in being a coach. I also agree that he doesn't have the obsessive nature to be a coach. So no.
David has way too many more important things going on for him these days.
The odds of him running for political office is greater than coaching the Spurs.
as head coach no, but i wouldn't mind seeing him as a assistant coach.
David is working for God. Much more important than coaching.
He's way too soft, he's like the Jolly Black Giant lol
Its not just making them realize who's the boss.. more important is motivating all those egos to play as a team. I don't see hom as a head coach.
He could coach, provided a healthy Tim Duncan is on the roster.
He's needed TD to be successful.
david would make a great coach
he went to the navy and would now how to run a tight ship
dude he did not need td to win a le
phil needed mj to win a le
and kobe and shaq
no, maybe big man coach, other than that is just pushin the boundaries.
Now, I can see David maybe being a coach but if you were to say Duncan, No! What about David as a commentator?
David Robinson is outstanding basketball player why woudl he coach?
No, He doesn't have the personality to coach. He paints everything in a positive way and a coach needs to kick some butt once in awhile. Robinson would have a hard time doing that.
Robinson has so much going on in his life I don't see how he could possibly leave any of that for a job like an NBA coach, which consumes so much time and energy that I'm amazed any of those guys have families. Although DRob as an assistant under Pop would be a fun "good cop/bad cop" dynamic. Next time Pop goes Serbian on someone David would be there to put his arm around them and remind them that Jesus loves them even if they are a step slow on their defensive rotations.
I'd be very surprised if he ever went into coaching.
I could see David beeing an assistant or a "centre coach" who develops young players but I can't imagine him being a head coach.
What about Bowen? Could you see him coaching? Just a thought.
I think that if David Robinson decided that he wanted to endure the day-in-day-out stuff that an NBA coach goes through and committed to doing that, he'd be great. It seems that he succeeds in everything he puts his mind to. Were he to make that decision, David's ability to think would likely be among his great assets and, I suspect he'd become a great x's and o's coach.
I can't imagine that David Robinson would ever want to commit to that. He seems to be having a great deal of fun just being a fan and making a difference in the lives of so many children -- particularly his own.
This totally hits it on the head. When he won the championship, he was asked why he didn't kiss the trophy. He said "I ain't gonna kiss anything that doesn't kiss me back."
He doesn't take basketball seriously enough (ie obsessively enough) to be a coach. And that's probably better for his mental health.
I agree, he's more likely to run for political office than try to be a coach.
Ummm, are you sure of that? I can't see David laying down the law, getting in a players face when needed, or arguing with the refs. He's waaaaaaaayyyyy too nice of a guy to be a head coach.
