He needs to get over himself.
I was sitting down smoking a stogie on a nice 77 degree evening in Southern California when I realized, how good is Pop really? Legendary teams and coaches should never be exposed so easily after winning 1 le. I know the Sperms have 5 rings, but If yall had PJax at the helm, you probably would of had 6-7 tbh.. Lets revisit history, these are the years that SA has been eliminated post 'ship. Looks like they get exposed every time. I just hope Popovich doesnt up USA Basketball tbh..
2000- Spurs fresh of the first ring, and they get stomped by Jason Kidd and lower seeded Suns.
2004- Lakers beat them, but lets face it, lakers were just the better team.
2006- 4th Seeded Dallas vs the #1 Seed(63-19) Spurs, another stomping by a lower seed smh.
2008- Kobe all over SA once again , lets just leave it at that.
2015- Losing to the Cripples.
They have been multiple times even when they had HCA.I know Pop is a good systems coach, and he knows how to win , sometimes, but the ass kickigns coming of championships makes me question if he knows how to adjust. Which looks like he doesnt.
pop a zit...its all about Phil
"How can you make sense of the officiating," said U.S. assistant Gregg Popovich, Duncan's coach in San Antonio. "If Tim Duncan knew this is how the games were going to be called, he would have thought seriously about not coming."
Duncan actually took pride in the bronze medal, happy to earn some reward for sacrificing two summers to the NBA's global marketing machine.
Good coach who turns into a mental midget vs Phil
Micromanages too much as well
We all you smoke stoogies non stop. Don't have to preface your troll job with it.
He's a small time Charlie.
That's why he threatened to quit when Tim Duncan quit.
Bend over, I'll show you a small time Charlie.
One of the best ever, if not the best.The biggest innovater in the modern era.. Kinda senile now though and tries to make it all about himself.
People forget he's also President of Basketball Operation.
He's piss pot.
Give Credit where its due..Pop's ego benefits the team. It keeps everyone on bay..is it detrimental at times, sure..But it is more beneficial than deteimental.
He's easily bettee than Phil Jackson.
Your Kobe quit when Pau left.
Kirby couldn't win a single playoff game after he threw Pau under the bus.
Pau on the other hand...
Saying Pop is easily better than Phil is like saying Kobe is easily better than Jordan. The only thing that carries weight for their legacies are the objective final results. Phil more than doubled Pop's ring count and beat him head to head when they met in the playoffs. Phil three-peated three times, repeated seven times and Pop never repeated once. Jordan never won without Phil. Pop will never be seen as the better coach from a historical perspective. The ship has sailed.
Not a cigar aficionado amb?want me to mail you a box? It'll help you relax. Is there anything that wasn't factual about my post? What makes you think I'm trolling ?
Could be the fact you brought up 2000 as if not winning in a postseason where Duncan missed every game due to a major injury is somehow the signs of a ty team.
I would not be surprised if you weren't even watching the NBA for any of those seasons except for 2015 due to your apparent dumpster-tier level knowledge of those seasons. You just google searched the outcomes then posted as if you watched. The outta here.
what does it matter , if i was or was not watching, the result is the same is it not? not Come on saltivius, u better come up with something better than that. You cant hide from the fact that Pop is overrated,Jim is over rated and MVParker is the real reason you have those rings.
Pop's greatest attribute was managing minutes and keeping old legs fresh for the postseason. He was a wizard when it came to that, and as a result the Spurs had more sustained success. Yes, Phil Jackson ruined him routinely (the only time he beat him was when PJ was undergoing an angioplasty in 2003), but Phil did that to everyone. Dunleavy Sr. couldn't take it either, and Adelman just wasn't ready for Phil's psychological warfare (see Hitler comparison)
