I don't think Pop is going to walk away while under contract, which extends through next season.
Coach Bud would be a good replacement tbh. He's already meeting with teams, so if Pop leaves this season , the Spurs shouldn't wait too long to contact him.
1 - Bud demeanor/personality suits this new generation of players...
2- He's very smart and has proven that he can run a team on his own
3 - Already familiar with the Spurs management
4- He's nice but isn't a pushover and will demand players to play hard

I don't know man, the death of a spouse can change people...
I'd put the odds of landing Kawhi + LeBron this summer about an order of magnitude above the odds Pop walks away from a contract he signed.
I'd like bud to come back as top assistant again with the notion that he will be the head coach once pop retires
Coaching is a young's man sport, Pop is significantly older than the vast majority of NBA coaches. It would be great if he were to move back into the front office and let someone younger and more importanly hungry lead our team.
Sell the farm for Budenholzer and Presti.
Ive known lots of people that are older in their profession quit after their wife dies.
Plus he still has USA Basketball coaching duties.
Oh the guy that got fired? And the other who lost TWO MVPs??
Damn you’re a ing idiot
On the flip side it helps some to stay active. It just depends on how Pop handles and deals with it.
Budenholzer didn't get fired you re ed got. I bet your fat momma is ashamed of you, middle school coach.
I didn't hear about Bud getting fired? Is he still under contract with Atlanta?
He is, but I think both are ready to part ways with each other. After the racist incidents with Danny Ferry and that FO representative, as well as the owner selling the team, I think the Hawks are looking to completely clean house and start anew.
pop and lebron won't tolerate a racist coach,
I think it went downhill about a year after Danny Ferry got fired. Luol Deng sucked, so it's kind of a good thing they didn't get him. I also think Bud went there to work with Danny, as I assume they were friends when they were with the Spurs, so that probably didn't work out the way that he wanted it to. Yeah, I think Bud wants out of there at this point.
Do you guys think Ferry should have gotten fired? I didn't read all the comments, so I'm not sure how bad they were. Was it justified?
It ain’t looking good bruh..if it was this thread wouldn’t have been made..
Official..I would take Bud back as lead assistant with promise to take over from Pop.
He'll go to New York or Milwaukee..
Come back, Bud!
He's gonna be in line for a head coaching gig, but if he somehow loses out and Messina bolts then it's a natural fit.
It won't make one iota of difference in this case, tbh.
If Pop retires, he should be the obvious choice tbh
I think Ime and Messina are gone. But I think Pops is grooming Becky just by reading what he says about her publicly. I don’t know how hiring Bud back suits well with that. I like Buds stock knowledge and demeanor, but will see how it unfolds.
