    What a great offseason ...

    1. Draft a perfect Spurs' system player in Kyle Anderson
    2. Re-sign Mills at a great rate due to shoulder injury
    3. Re-sign Diaw to a reasonable contract
    4. Add one of the best international coaches as an assistant to the coaching staff...

    Doesn't get much better than that.

    Ginobili is on record saying that he owes his development into an NBA-caliber player to Messina when Messina was Manu's coach prior to Manu's NBA days.

    Awesome news. Though, I'm not sure how much assistant coaching really factors anymore.. not since the Spurs went further with Boylen&Marks than they did with Bud&Brown. But adding more knowledge is never a bad thing.

    Wonder how long he'll stick around.. doubt a coach with his rep will still be here by the time Pop's contract is expired.

    From the official press release:

    "I am honored to have such an accomplished individual join our program,” Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich said. “Coach Messina is an exceptional coach, a great leader and someone we can all learn from."
