    I got this far and saw no reason to continue reading your post. Think of how the third clause relates to the first and try and use some critical thinking.
    Thanks for addressing Brunodfs point while providing numerous instances where Popped was and is "finding and developing talent, no one has been better than Greg Popovich in the modern era."

    BTW is BG_Spurs_Fan one of your other profiles?

    uh. and therefore you don't need coaching, right?

    of course you need to still develop a player at 25 (btw. Manu was 25, not 26).
    I would even claim, that's the point: what coach has the ability to improve a player, who is already in his mid 20ies. Pop does.
    Please provide some specific info as to how Popped developed Manu and soo many others. During this years playoffs Poop was quoted as saying regarding Manu "I stopped trying to coach him a long time ago." Obviously Manu does not listen. Case in point where Pop did make a valid coaching suggestion (hey it happens) and yet Manu ignored him was the 2006 choker. Popped said during the timeout "do NOT foul the shooter".

    Thank you. A solid PPopper contribution.

    Pop deserves some development kudos for the Spurs practices where they scored points by defensive stops.
    This was during the Spurs defensive years when we were also poised to go on a dynasty run. Great! Why not keep it up from summer of 2005 onward?
    All shot to by his mismananagement.

    Instead I wanted to talk about what I think is his greatest attribute in talent evaluation and development.
    Although these attributes are part of Pop, I think his best attribute is his management of people. For the most part, he's been a straight shooter with his players and staff and I think they appreciate that. Even those that have left the organization seem to have a healthy respect for the Spurs' Way, which is synonymous with Pop's Way.

    Popovich runs the tightest ship in professional sports. You grandstanding on one of his quips aside, what 'specific' case can you make for any player being scouted, developed, and/or coached by Popovich or anyone else in the organization for that matter? You going to base it on one line zingers and out of context sideline soundbites?

    For example, what have they worked on this offseason? Can you come up with anything?

    It's your OP that claims the "breathtaking" cases for Pop. Now you're asking me to provide examples for you?
    Which btw i already gave you one in Bowen and the practices that scored points for D stops rather then O baskets.
    Soundbites. "Breathtaking" "Tightest ship"
    "Believe"

    I was wondering if and when you would get tired enough to weigh in on this.
    There are so many holes to find in their arguments that they even rival all the holes in Blankenshire.

    They've just gone beyond the pale. They post about nothing else. They need therapy. God knows what what they would do if something bad happened to them in real life.

    It's actually "Gregg", since you're going to spend all this time fellating him.

    It's interesting that you conflate supporting someone with some sort of sexual act. It seems to be a central theme in your reasoning. I have always felt that obvious untruths such as the ones that make up most of everything you say speak more to the sayer than they do the sayee.

    No, monkey, go ahead and give us a flippant dismissal or another sexual image.

    I'm guessing everything has to be in blue letters for you to get the sarcasm.

    What difference does that make? Constant erotic references are what they are even in a sarcastic tone. Derisive or ironic it doesn't matter.

    What's wrong with eroticism?
