Also, all Spurs involved in All-Star weekend will fly to LA from Chicago. Hit the link for the whole piece.
Long road trip even longer for Spurs’ All-Stars...Already, he’s begun to plan his rotation, especially as it relates to Lakers star Kobe Bryant and Dallas star Dirk Nowitzki.
“They’ll play at least 45 (minutes),” Popovich joked. “If I go to 48, it will be too obvious.”

Way to go, Pop!
Our sentiments exactly!
lol pop..
but ugh.. they've got to fly in from chicago to LA.. :\
IMO if the ASW starts Friday there should not be any games played on Thursday
Yea and Pop will probably give TD and MG 6-8 minutes of play![]()
From his last article in his website, they will be there.
Awaiting Laker fan meltdow over Pop sarcasm, ala the aftermath of the "Trade Committee" that Pop "proposed" after the Gasol deal.
imagine if he really does it and gives the thumbs up again that'd be hilarious
The fans want to watch 'exciting' players like Kobe and Dirk, Pop just giving them what they want.![]()
Can Pop trade Gasol to the East for Joe Johnson and a second-round pick?
Start Tim. Take him out after one minute and sit him on the bench for the rest of the game. Have him change into street clothes at half-time.
Give Manu about 3 minutes per half--but not at crucial times if the game is close because he doesn't know the words "pace yourself" in English and might get hurt diving for loose balls.
Overtime would be great for extra minutes for Kobe and Dirk. Wear them boogers out, Pop.
I hope it's 45 minutes of nonstop run and gun offense.
I love Pinché Pop
I hope he wears an Hawaiian shirt and Bermudas for the game.
Translation: I spend the All-Star break drinking winePopovich admits he’s grown accustomed to using the All-Star break to take a breather and "contemplate my life and the world.”![]()
It will be all Durant/Melo/Blake/Love
Duncan/Drk/Gasol will combine what, 15-20min?
I just want to see Pop call a timeout and at Kobe for a missed defensive assignment.
Gotta love Pop's sense of humor. Compared to many other coaches who take themselves ever so seriously...
For some reason the Bonner part cracks me up.The traveling party list, which still could grow, includes Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili...All-Star Game...DeJuan Blair and Gary Neal...rookie challenge...Gregg Popovich...coach the Western Conference...Tony Parker...skills challenge...Matt Bonner...to run for a vice president’s opening in the players union.
Bonner is going to save the league by negotiating the next CBA!
