Mrs Popovich passed away today

[Atl Spur]

No bull jokes from Spurs Talk jesters? Some of you clowns don’t deserve the success this organization has provided you as fans!

[offset formation]

Hard to believe he was coaching under these cir stances. We also rip him when he says some things are more important than basketball. Well today we understood what he was talking about. Hopefully he has good memories to help him through this tough time.

RIP Mrs Popovich.

What a terrible news, I feel so sad even though I never saw or heard about her.

All my love a support to Pop and his family.

Your ass is showing...

Well said Kevin!

[cool cat]

So to recap this season:

- Spurs sign Patty Mills and Pau Gasol to bloated long-term contracts
- Peter Holt and his wife get divorced
- Kawhi misses almost the whole year and his relationship with the team seriously deteriorates
- Spurs win 47 games, snapping their streak of consecutive 50-win seasons
- Pop's wife dies
- Spurs about to lose in the 1st round

Saddened by this news for Pop. Would be saddened for anyone to lose their partner in life. Truly feel for him. I've been married for 23 years and would be absolutely devastated if I lost the best part of me.

Totally disgusted by some comments by people on this board. Really classless and a lack of respect.

Also, TNT showed a total lack of professionalism by putting Lebron on the spot like that. However, he handled with sincerity, compassion, and respect.

I’m keeping notes (not that people care). Anyone who shows their ass now is on my list

I remember Pop saying his wife would get on his case when he would be a jerk to the media! Lol! It showed how much he loved when he spoke of her! So sad!

[SAGirl]

40 years... wow RIP...

[Pauleta14]

Agreed

Looks like they did the same with Durant

Wtf

That's disgusting.

You can see on the Durant video they are almost excited to get a 1st hand impression.

What I'm reading from some people on this forum is also insane. ing troll generation who don't know when to stop...

[TE]

Pure class by Lebron on that response. TNT was pretty low breaking that news to him. Ratings and all that.

All that put aside, news like this hits home. We shoot the on here, troll and joke around. But this is bigger than basketball.

Same. I know people online can say silly but we all grieve and have lost loved ones. Sad people can't turn their goofy off in a time like this.

Thoughts and prayers with Pop.

makes you wonder what he may have been dealing with in recent months if she was ill leading up to it

[UZER]

I can’t stand Shaq on Inside the NBA but that was a cool story.

Problem is, shaq has been known to lie, or embellish, with his stories.

Source on reddit claims she had cancer for the past 3 years ... fwiw

[Pauleta14]

Just ban already anybody who dared making fun of this tragic moment!!!

Shame on you guys

Moderators have long ago let this place become overrun with garbage; a shame really because some of the best and smartest Spurs fans reside here.

Media gots know that they can catch the players and coaching staff by surprise and get them to have an emotional response for clicks and views. Sick s

RIP

That’s what I heard too

[daslicer]

How would you know? She died today at 2 pm! They’re in San Antonio! Who are you to judge moron!

If the rumors are true about her battling cancer for the last few years then she was probably already in ho e. I'm sure she probably told Pop what she wanted him to do before her condition deteriorated.

[superbigtime]

Wow what a shocker. rest in peace. Poor Pop, can't believe this, how has he coached all these games this crazy season. They shouldn't put players on the spot that way, courtside and all sweaty, with news like that. Classless. Thoughts and prayers to Pop and their families.
