    I love Pop. He’s great all time coach. The 4th best ever. He’s won so many games for us and done more for us as a city than any coach possibly could. The success he had in a small market will never be matched and is unparalleled. When I think coaching excellence, basketball excellence, and overall human being excellence, I think of Pop more so than anybody in the history of the league. Him sucking as a coach pains me on an emotional level bc of all the battles this man has led us through.

    But every coach gets old. Every general retires. Every person reaches the time when it’s time to move on from him. Will he be fired? I hope not. I hope he steps down gracefully. But he can’t be our coach any longer. He can be a consultant. He can be our president of operations. He can be at the facility every single day as a special liaison of some sort. But just not our coach. No bashing or hating from me. It’s just time to move on.

    "Pop used to be really good but now he sucks" really isn't that hot of a take.
    Many coaches of the year get fired
    Even coaches who win a le 2-4 years later they get their asses fired

    Still going with 1.Manu and 1b.Becky, but even Brent Barry as coach would be an improvement over Pop right now.

    It's going to be an amazing day when the old man is finally gone. Like a bunch of concentration camps getting liberated tbh.

    I'm almost on the bandwagon. One more loss, and I will be. You can't have the exact same collapse in the 3rd quarter over and ing over for a franchise record 17 games straight and not fire the coach. It's that simple. History and contributions to the city be damned.

    I'm nobody except a fan, and you've got one last chance, old man. Please make it happen.

    This is nuts. And frankly unacceptable tbh.


    Spurs largest leads this season with Wins (green) and Losses (red).

    Brother, if you weren't on the bandwagon when he started Bryn Forbes for b2b seasons and when he literally refused to play Dejounte and DWhite together, I don't know what to say. Pop's been absolute for a long time now...to the point where I'm not even sure if its on him anymore. He seems legitimately senile that somebody should have taken the keys a long time ago.

    Pop is going to the Hall of Fame. The Spurs are never going to fire him.

    They will ask him to step down and resign instead of firing him but if he doesn't resign the spurs still won't fire him.

    I'm a total Spurs homer, always have been. I always "believe", always trust Pop though I've criticized him plenty. Everyone makes mistakes - you learn, you grow, even as an old head.

    And I truly thought Pop would bring his ultimate A game for this last bit of his life/career.

    He's failed everyone, especially Wemby, thus far. It's pathetic how he's misused and underutilized players in proper positions over and over.

    Also, unrelated to Mugen, but people defending this as a 'ghost tank', you, straight up.

    The problem is when people think the Spurs = Pop. It was never that. Pop was made by Duncan.

    He's always been a mediocre coach that's devolved into flat out the last decade.

    This franchise will never ever be relevant again until the old man is within 50 feet.

    If you're a Spurs homer then you'd want him in a retirement home yesterday.

    I'm nostalgic bro. Pop did such great things. I remember 2003 still like it was yesterday, and even stretches of 99 though i was pretty young. It's so hard to want to just kick his ass to the curb, but I'm almost there. Almost

    Wemby will have so much organizational power in two-three years as a player. If Pop isn't the coach he believes he can lead him to success then he will push him to retirement or just only the president of the team. The Spurs know by then that they need to start showing a lot of promise by that time if they want to build an arena in downtown SA with tax increases.

    If the Spurs are not significantly better by the end of next season, I guarantee you they won't have to worry about who Wemby wants as coach down the road

    1999 and 2003 Pops plan was 4 down. You hear him in the huddle and he says 'give the ball to Tim and we'll see what they do'. That's not a great coach. A pre school kid could have known to tell the team to do that.

    It was a ripoff of Rudy Tomjianovich.
