Mrs Popovich passed away today

[gospursgojas]

Wtf?

You are comparing a pussy superstar and a millionaire divorce to a death?

Wasn’t comparing. Was responding to post about this season sucking.

Did anyone know?? How he could keep something like this so private is beyond me. Shocking news.

[picnroll]

Horrible end to a bad year. RIP

[UZER]

Sad. Ive been tough on Pop but sincerely been saying for awhile, retire already. Enjoy the rest your life. There is nothing left to prove.

The jokes are really uncalled for. Yeah we all disagree and question some of the things Pop does as the coach of the Spurs, but his wife passing away isn't something to joke about. Try to be more mature.

Spurs dont do the bull . Even more respect. 40 years. Thats a lot of life together.

What ty news. He is devastated, I am sure. I know I would be. I have been with my wife 8 years, including the courtship, and I cannot imagine not having her in my life anymore. The one solace is she is no longer suffering and in pain.....she is now in eternal rest. God Speed for the Pop family and RIP Erin.

she finally got over herself

Mixed feelings tbh. Very sad moment for the Spurs family (ST included). But at the same time she’s not suffering anymore and soon gonna be some precious interplanetary S ust.

[ducks]

If she was that bad did holt not give him time off to be with her?
Did he not trust his coaching staff?

[SPURt]

This whole season is tough. I feel horrible for Pop. This is the type of tragedy that warrants not going to games and taking time off work, yet he spent the last days of his wife’s life in GS with the team and Kawhi can’t even be bothered. I pray Pop finds peace through it all.

Very sad day for the Spurs family

Damn thats rough. Don't even want to think about the day I lose my wife.

You probably won't have to worry about that, tbh

they've kept everything under wraps... so its hard to know if this was sudden/unexpected or if she had been deteriorating to this point. which could explain pop's DGAF demeanor we've been seeing

[naf srups]

who comes back first, her or kawhi?

Got to admit that made me laugh. In fact someone should tell that to Pop. Laughter, they say is the best medicine.

I doubt he would be denied time away. I think he chose to be out there coaching.

I imagine he really enjoys it. With the amount of money he has earned already there is no reason he'd still be doing it if he didn't still love the game.

This. Sounds like a great woman ...maybe Kiwi attends funeral and team mends fences? Sometimes the blessing in death is it brings some people closer ...

Woj reports she had been sick for a few months.

[monkeypunk]

Joking about someone's spouse passing away is really low. Show some respect.

RIP. Sad news. Hope Pop takes the time he needs.

[silverblackfan]

RIP

Incredibly sad news. Rest in Peace Mrs. Pop.

You're obviously an idiot - Holt hasn't had control of the team for over 2 years now.

[Clipper Nation]

Awful news. Condolences to the whole Popovich family and the Spurs.
