    I caught the Aldridge/West question. The reporter could have at least tried to explain what he was talking about. Sure Pop was being a (a little more than usual, it seemed), but come on. He was off camera but I could hear him curl up into the fetal position.

    If you are a quality reporter, you understand there are about 82+ games and you can take what is given and make your column. It isn't Pops job to write the story. Reporters need to get the story done and use his quote(s) and reactions as the cherry on top, not the apple filling to your pie.

    I don't see anything wrong with the answers. Is he suppose to answer in detailed paragraphs?

    Do people actually think ESPN/TNT want conventional answers from Pop, tbh?

    He's protesting the forced interviews required by the TV contacts. It's part of his job. I get why he'll never do it though, it's not basketball it's entertainment. Head coach shouldn't have to entertain, certainly not during a game.

    Pop is not giving anything away. He is more of a to the SA writers than others. They are so off-balance and intimidated that they add to the awkwardness.
    His interviews in Boston seem fun, friendly and in-depth for some reason when talking to their reporters.

    It's a small, family-run business to Pop. He protects his players and the organization. Or so it seems to me.

    Nobody has pulled the CIA Pop card because CIA Pop doesn't want the board to expose him.

    That is CIA Pop.

    Backwards reverse psychology upside-down.

    I'm just expecting him to be the Jason Bourne boss in the new movie. Or maybe he won't be... CIA Pop...

    What's your take on it? just think it's gotten too awkward lately when he isn't even throwing them a boilerplate bone to work with.. flat out too curt and dismissive..

    Throwing the team under the bus on losses has worn thin
