I know it was, but as much as you believe they are, they are not related, and I wanted to make that clear to you, maybe now you understand.It was rhetorical
yall need to retire from this website.
He hasn't done a terrible job this season. It seems like the young guys have given him some new energy, he seems motivated and is doing a good job, IMO. Last year he looked miserable most games, just like the fans were.
How quickly will these exhalers be calling for Becky's head? I put the over/under at five games, tbh.
Hiring Becky only makes history-and is not done with getting the best qualified
Last year Pop was fixated with outscoring the opponents, to the detriment of playing defense. It was surprising to turn back from the defensive mantra that the Spurs were known for. I like to say it was CIA Pop that lost just enough games to field the 3 and D player that the Spurs need from the draft?? And now the Spurs are back playing physical, tough defense. They are a long way to go, but the expectation is there to play better defense. And that's all I can hope for. Other teams are taking years, decades to replace their franchise player. I seriously think we've made a turn on Keldon and Co. Imo, they only need a 20/10 big to totally compete, one that they can get either through FA or draft (unlikely in 1st or 2nd year). Or maybe they already have with Keldon? Spurs just need big body to protect the rim and score some. Still, I see a clear direction where the Spurs are going.
A lot of fans will not appreciate Pop until he's retired, which is sad. Myself, I want him to get the winningest coach. I'm sure he doesn't care. But to have a Spurs coach get that while coaching just one team, our Spurs??? That's part of Spurs as one of NBA's mecca.

I understood it the past few years, because of his stupid ass rotations, but what is the complaint this year? I think he's playing the right guys and most of them are good individual defenders.
Are his defensive schemes just outdated?
I was pissed when she didn't put KBD in when she stepped in for Pop when he got tossed.
Saying Becky isn't a great coach is telling, the question is whether she is the best available coach. Most of the good coaches are being happily paid in good markets. Spurs will get their share of the retreads. No one is going to rush to succeed pop for a roster with such uncertain talent.
The alternative is the "lifetime pass" that you and the Sniff Crew are asking for
As hilarious as it will be to hear Pop call 4 down for Timmy 5 years from now, I think we should give the old man a much deserved rest
Also, the bar to eclipse the current head coach is set at "understands modern NBA basketball," so hopefully the pool isn't that small
Yeah, rotations and personnel haven't really been issues with Pop this season (other than the fact that some of the personnel, the vets especially, is just.... Done). The problem lies within the schemes. As much as I love Pop, he doesn't seem to like the way the game is played nowadays (on both ends of the floor), and him trying to fight against the current and instill old timers' values into the young guys is actively detrimental to them and the team. The cliché is "Pop hates the 3", which I don't agree with, but the Spurs are clearly behind the curve in regards to modern offensive and defensive sets, and it's not entirely or majorly a personnel problem (even though Dejounte will disagree with me here).
I'm willing to give Pop this last season. Go out with a bang, hopefully even make the POs as a last hurray, then fade to black while the vets also leave or are traded. Start next season with a blank slate, new coach, and developed youngsters ready for a bigger role. That's a good plan to me.
Some of you keep me smiling
I thought everybody on this message board knew these two things already:
1. This is Pop’s last season. He will retire after the Olympics.
2. Bill Self will replace him as head coach.
Synder

Hi Mugen.....I’m waiting to hear your candidates to coach this team
His schemes are garbage bro. We give up 3s and lay ups while contesting midrange shots and overhelping on drivers. It should be the other way around. Like I said, when Messina and Udoka left, the defensive schemes went with them.
Anybody below 70 years old. Take your pickHi Mugen.....I’m waiting to hear your candidates to coach this team
You'll be ing, complaining and endlessly "trolling" (with terribly unfunny or amusing material) within 10 games of their arrival.Anybody below 70 years old. Take your pick
If you can't appreciate the greatest coach and front-office the franchise ever had (and will have), how the can you patiently watch the turds of the league (Jaques Vaughn, Jim Beilein, etc, etc,) actually blunder through losing season after losing season?
You are literally the dumbest, most childish, repe ive troll on these boards. I'd rather see you find a new team, leave here and never comeback than see Pop retire. His presence has actually led to great things and helped the team become a dynasty. You on the other hand are an ungrateful, annoying little turd stain that should have left here years ago.
Becky would be great if we decide to tank for 2-3 seasons which is what realistically this team needs to do.
Once you draft one or two solid stars in the making, you thank her for her services and hire a legit NBA coach.
Ummmm.........ok.Anybody below 70 years old. Take your pick
I can already hear you huffin' and puffin' after you typed that out, that's enough cardio for today big man
It would be a good time for self to leave Kansas. Think they have some ncaa investigations going on
