thanx for everything, but now really is a time to go and enjoy retirement.... Spurs also need to stop ing around and get a new coach asap. Should have been done years ago.
All the best to Pop. Hope he recovers fully and is able to carry on in his president of Spurs basketball role.
Also, some truly horrible coach suggestions in this thread lol do people actually watch basketball?

that really sucks... can't stand mitch
That could be. They went on an absolute tear, and maybe they took their foot off the gas, but at the time it felt like Don Nelson built the Warriors to kill the Mavs and Dallas was too proud to duck them.
Jack was on that Warriors team too IIRC. Loved watching Dallas get humiliated. But I still love AJ and would like to see him coach.
GOATED career with Red & Phil. Hope he gets an amazing farewell start of next season.
Can we convince Phoenix to fire Bud?
Interesting. Shams is saying that he's not returning this season, doesn't know if/when he will return. Says at some point in the future there will be a time and place where he will make determinations and address his long term future.
The whole idea of “Pop maybe coming back at some undetermined point in the future… or maybe not, we’ll just wait and see!” Puts the team in such a weird state of limbo that it’s quite frankly irresponsible to let it continue. No serious organization should let this continue. It’s time for RC to pull on his big girl pants and make the call that’s time for a formal retirement.
Ugh this screams money, like maybe Holt Jr isn't willing to pay another coach while Pop still has 3 more years left on his deal after this one. Wonder if we have another Dumont failson kind of situation here. Holt Sr was amazing at being willing to pay the cost to win and the only time he ever really got cheap was with Scola, but with Holt Jr it has yet to be seen.
You really think Pop would be shameless enough to keep taking the paychecks even though he's not coaching anymore?
After all the winning seasons and championships he helped the Spurs get he deserves every penny even if he never coaches again.
What's he going to do with all that money? Take it to the grave?
Spurs have the highest paid coach and front office in the league. Or at least they did, idk if something changed over the past year.
He earned all of it, but it's not like he wasn't fairly compensated for his services.
Pop may not be back but Johnson is not the solution either. Maybe Paul could do a Lenny Wilkins.
My understanding was that Pop’s deal was a series of 1-year deals with options. Don’t know if it were exclusively his option or the team’s as well though. Is there a CBA for Coaches?
Pop collecting checks while sitting in a hospital bed and Holt Jr being too cheap to hire another coach would be a nightmare scenario.
game to game just all depended on the knees that day.
TBH why would Pop coach next season? His health would be a constant issue and it seems kind of selfish to insist on coaching this team when the game has passed him by and there are other coaches waiting for an opportunity in the NBA while he racks up meaningless win numbers on a team that will maybe be a playoff team next season or just as likely not.
Chris Paul for coach?
Carried by Duncan, a bonafide loser without him.
Only slightly better than Belichick without Brady tbh.
I’m ready to coach guys. Don’t worry, I got this.
100%
Pulling this schtick of "maybe I'm coming back, look, I just drove by myself like a 15 year old" is sad.
It's selfish, it's making it all about him, and shows that he's not over himself.
Driving by yourself in a luxury vehicle with driver assist, Lane assist, auto braking, giant map screen with directions, air bags, proximity sensors and tons of cameras on a route he's driven thousands of times isn't a great sign that in the middle of a high paced intense madhouse of screaming, whistles, obnoxiously loud music, flashing lights, and rapid running and jumping giants that he's going to be right on top of things with no detrimental delays in reaction time.
Great career, but come on, this is getting depressing.
Case in point...the poster is using some sense/logic to make an inclination...try it
The chams video isn't interesting...he said what le of this thread is and what was said in first post of thread
Pop pulling a Kobe would be legit hilarious tbh
Doesn't matter until the offseason.
