This would bother me if Jason Terry were a team player, a big game guy, or a guy who wins. He's none of those, so it's only appropriate that he wouldn't like what the Spurs do.
Heard this on the "Jet Terry Show" on 103.3 ESPN. Terry was talking about Rick Carlisle coming to town and the conversation went to player's coach vs. non-player's coach. He mentioned that Avery was player's coach because off the court he had an open door policy, whereas Pop is not a player's coach because it is his way or the highway, went on to say that he was a dictator.
This only bothers me because I can not stand Jason Terry.
Your thoughts?

Who cares what Jason Terry thinks of Pop?
And besides that, how would he even know what kind of coach Pop is? He's never played under him....
Pop's way wins; why would you go another way?
It seems as if "Jet" is the one with the "my way or the highway" complex. He would never fit into a system like that of the Spurs because he is not a team player, much less a winner.
if he's never ever played for him, he has no business commenting![]()
Nice of him to make an assumption about a coach he's never played under and who furthermore has 4 championships.
Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker are living, breathing testament to the fact that it's not always Pop's way or the highway.
Yep. The other night when Pop told Tony "It's your game baby", it sure sounded to me like he is a dictator.
HTF would Jet know anyway? He's never been lucky enough to be in a Spurs uniform.
But, WTF if he's right. 4 les and the best record of the Decade say whatever he is doing, it's working.

Not so much Tony as Manu...
Pop certainly doesn't control what Manu does, infact I'm not even sure Manu knows what he's going to do each time down the court until about five minutes after he's done it....
Players love pop.
"Jet" is barely even a "journalist" and already he can't tell the difference between a coach who yells at all of his players ( yes even stars), and a guy who obtains power with an ak47 and and an army of violent militants. -Their brainwashing is very effective
I can just imagine pop peaking in on Tony and Eva as they are sleeping at night, putting tails on Horry when he goes out at night. Waiting for the slightest violation of his dictate. Zieghiel Pop is King![]()

I've heard players actually call Pop "a player's coach". Jason Terry just likes to speak out of his ass.
The Spurs seem to genuinely like and respect Pop and his record speaks for itself.
Good!! Turtlehead can keep playing his way and continue to be a loser
Pops a genuine guy, hes smart, humble doesn't take , demands excellence for the money he and his players earn, and he gets it.
I wouldn't want any other coach in the nba right now.
Jason Terry is a wanna be thug.
The main question should be why in the he even has a show...
Jason would never survive in Pop's defense. He's great at doing airplane impersonations, that's about it.
Jason Terry does not have a JET nickname. Bunch of Mav fans ripped that from Kenny Smith.
Terry the Tyrant sounds better anyhow.
No one said the Dallas Mavericks were an intelligent bunch.
I think he gave himself the nickname, which is far worse.
