if gregg popovich coaches in the all star game the final score will be 140-67

Pop has already said on the radio that he would rather not coach the All Star game, and he would rather none of his players played either because he would like them to rest. He doesn't really think much of the AS games.

That said, he won't try to hold any players back from playing and he will probably coach if so chosen. And Pop does not try to lose games. He will try to win, and win he will. The Lakers may as well bend over to receive the big one when the Spurs stomp them.

They will have plenty of rest.

They are off from Feb 16th to Feb 23rd...that is actually too much time off. It will be good for Tim and Manu and Beno to play AS weekend just to stay in shape.

Too much time off has never been good for the Spurs. They are used to playing 3 games a week and if they get 1 week off, it will hurt their rythm and momentum that they have going.

[Sec24Row7]

The coaches of the all star game get something like $25,000 apiece if they win and $10,000 if they lose.

Pop's coaching staff doesn't make the millions like he does.

He keeps saying that he doesn't care, be THEY do.

He couldn't tank a game without REALLY pissing them off.

At least with Pop on the bench, the Spurs can be sure that nobody will run Duncan out to 40+ minutes or anything stupid like that.

It will be interesting to see, if the game comes down to a final play like last year's did, who Pop would go to. Flip had the chance to crown KG, and instead drew up a play for Timmy. Would Pop give it to KG? Would he play Manu over Kobe (assuming Kobe is healthy) at the end of a game? If the West has a 10 point lead in the last 5 minutes, will he play an all-defense unit with Garnett, Duncan, Marion, Kobe (again assuming Kobe is healthy) and, say, Manu? Shut-down defense in the all-star game?

I told you the Suns would not lose 2 games.....now do you agree with me?

Well you might have won the bet,but the bet was a no go.At least I was right on one thing POP WILL COACH IN THE ALL-STAR GAME.
