As expected. Good for him. Well-deserved.

Everyone will sit out until the first game.
Immense Congrats to Pop for finally getting the honour even if belated due to his narcissistic predecessor hogging it up for near a decade..At least he get to coach talents still in prime and peak like Anthony Davis/Kawhi/Durant/West-brook etc..
Well deserved and entirely appropriate.
Does that mean the Spurs should expect another five years?
Best man for the job; cheers to Pop
I could see him quitting the Spurs in 2019 and using all of 2020 to focus on the big games. This will likely be his only shot at a gold medal.
He had promised Aldridge he would stick around for the duration of his contract, so this just adds to the certainty.
Honestly i thought the ship has sailed for Pop as far taking over Team USA and someone younger like Rick Carlisle might be the pick.. but no one is more deserving than Coach Pop with his resume ontop of his appreciation and immersion in International Basketball..
Well deserved by Pop!!!!
Kawhi and maybe LMA on that 2020 team?
lets see how he looks without parker holding him back
Congrats Coach Pop!!! Finally nice to have some patriotism in the Spurs lockeroom that has been sorely missed since the Admiral retired

Congratulations to Pop. Well deserved honor.
Can't see LMA. But Kawhi is practically a given.
I just hope he gets to coach a good team that is capable of winning gold unlike '04.
Hopefully Pop's at least a 6 time NBA champ by the time that Olympics rolls around!
Coach K hogged the entire Lebron James prime period ..Presumably a healthy Anthony Davis should still be at the peak of his powers in 2020, prime Kawhi, Durant and Westbrook worse off but still in prime while awaiting more talent coming down the pipeiline ..But in any case, it won't be as stacked as 2008/2012 teams..
