    I'm guessing GHill doesn't tweet.. maybe that's why he's Pop's favorite.

    Gregg Popovich, Not a Fan of Twitter

    12/16/2009 8:00 AM ET By Brett Pollakoff



    PHOENIX -- Tuesday morning, as the Suns were preparing to face the Spurs later that night, Steve Nash posted a message to his Twitter feed that said in part, "Anyone know coach Popovich was an American spy in Russia before he began coaching? No wonder his teams are hard to beat!"

    During the tenured coach's pregame session with the media, he was made aware of this tweet from Nash. And in classic Popovich style, he sarcastically answered the question, but not before making his feelings about Twitter crystal clear.

    "Does Steve tweet? I've lost all respect," Popovich joked. "Steve Nash should not be a tweeter. He's a compe or, not a tweeter."

    As for Nash's assertion that the coach's time in the military helped him become a basketball mastermind, Popovich wholeheartedly agreed.

    "He's absolutely correct," Popovich deadpanned. "I spent all my military time in Russian basketball courts in different cities collecting as many out of bounds plays as I possibly could. And now, I've had a chance to employ them."

    Popovich then continued his anti-Twitter remarks, effectively saying that in his eyes, loose lips sink ships.

    "If you're a tweeter, you talk too much. You want to keep things closer to the vest, so you can't tweet."

    When it was pointed out that the Spurs have some tweeters in their locker room, Popovich's response was pretty much what you'd expect.

    "I know," Popovich said. "I hate 'em all."

    my only concern with Spurs players with Twitter is that Mason never seems to care about losing.

    the second the game is over, he's tweeting about "getting to 20,000 followers" or something of the sort.

    makes them seem like they don't care about losing....oh wait.
