Still haven't killed yourself I see. Good for you.

[Vokun]

He really is. Without Tim Duncan, Pop wouldn't be nearly as celebrated as he is. , you can argue that Duncan would have at least 2 more rings if it weren't for Pop.

What the ed happen to hack a simian?????/

Tbh

[spursistan]

I wouldn't say he is over-hyped..but he is probably no longer pound for pound best coach in the league..It is a concern that going to potential Clippers series we have to worry about Pop getting out-coached by Doc Rivers even with the talent he has..

I thought OP offed himself already?

Without the greatest player of all time in Jordan + Pippen & Kobe + Shaq, Phil wouldn't be nearly as celebrated as he is.

Without Bill Russell + Sam Jones + John Havlicek, Red Auerbach wouldn't be nearly as celebrated as he is. Etc, etc.

Coaches don't win without elite talent, period.

This is correct. The coaches that are considered the best that have dynasties are always going to have elite players. We can't go back in time to give Pop a team without Duncan. But my guess is that he's still be considered a great coach. Of course not on the same level as one that had 5 rings. But something like Carlisle.

[spursistan]

I think Carlisle is better coach in 2016..There are up and coming brilliant X and Os guys like Stevens in Boston but will need to win in the playoffs before we anoint him..Stan Van Gundy is not that far off..

6 aside, Pop 2012/2013/2014 were masterful coaching jobs considering how over-matched in talent at the top the Spurs were..That's no excuse in 2016..Anything less than compe ive 6 game series with Warriors, i would officially consider Pop to have underachieved with this team relative to previous "done more with less" runs. ..

Are you calling him fat?

[TheGreatYacht]

Lol, Pop without Tim is fired in 2 years. Probably would've ended up like Bob Hill.

His system was literally 4 down for about a decade lol

[Budkin]

We all thought that post 6

[Clipper Nation]

OP is a got. Can't blame Kawhi, can't blame Manu, so Pop gets thrown under the bus this time to protect Porker.

[Kawhitstorm]

Poop without Tim:
-1996-97: 17-47
-2000 playoffs: Only won one game from a Suns team w/o Kidd/HCA

[daslicer]

Pop's biggest strength to me is developing young players.

I don't even think Tim Duncan played in the playoffs that year. Didn't he tear his meniscus or something like that before the playoffs even started?

He was almost fired with Tim.


But yeah, everyone that considers him in the NBa as the best coach is wrong, and basement dwelling re s on a message board know more

You just prove why pop is most overhyped coach of all time, can't compare pop to those great coaches, pop in comparison to them is soft as a nice white pussy, losing les because of stupidity, naiveness and arrogance making spurs very underachiever in his time...

[kobyz]

Steave Kerr a better coach by miles...
