lol
How hilarious would that be?
Imagine the $ they'd throw at him to join.
Pop has an ego and would be an idiot to pass up that kind of $$.
I'm pretty sure you don't fully comprehend what a "lead analyst" actually does for ESPN.
But he has that ego and its big enough to send the whole world to eat .

No he won't. He's not a talker. He probably won't be involved with the NBA at all after retirement from coaching.
Pop will be a drunk recluse
Now that would be must see TV
Nope, Pop will retire to his vineyards just like Sloan retired to his farm. A lot of parallels there except we had Duncan and they had Malone. 4 rings to oh that's right zero.
I'd like to see Pop be the guy that interviews coaches at the beginning of the 4th quarter. Now THAT would be ironic.
However, as many posters have already said, there is no chance Pop goes to TV after he calls it quits with coaching.
I wonder if Pop quitting coaching will end his tenure with the Spurs or will he stay on in the executive role. I'd like to see him here even beyond the coaching days.
Suck on Lebron for 500 ol' sport
I would rather see him on NBATV, with shaq, charles, smith and all those guys.
R u guys serious? Have you seen pop, with a mic in his face??
I could see it now. So Pop what do you think about the Lakers play as of lately. "They Suck..." Blank stare.
THIS. ABSOLUTELY. POSITIVELY.
Pop would invoke the "3 question rule" with his broadcast partner, leaving the mic silent shortly after the start of the broadcast.
However, I agree it would be worth money to see him do the 3rd quarter coach interviews.
Never happen. He probably retires from coaching eventually only to stay on as president of the Spurs FO.
Didn't see George Karl doing the analyst thing tbqh, so I guess anything is possible. But, I just don't see ESPN wanting Pop's brand of analysis (boring but brilliant). His coarse personality plays well as a schtick for in-game interviews but not as a full time gig imho fwiw.
I was clearly joking..but ESPN will call him. The $$ is too good to pass up. Why do you think ex coaches all go to broadcasting? Cake job that pays more then being an assistant lol
Hey, that's 4 rings AND COUNTING, got it?
karl is just waiting for a team to call him up
It pays next to nothing. It's like a couple of hundred grand per year which is pennies to someone what like Pop. Last I checked Stephen A Smith makes like $400,000/year with ESPN. You think Pop gives two s about that kind of money?
ESPN is too scared of pop to even ask him to join
