Good riddanceβ¦. Is Steve Kerr next so they can both become full-time political consultants since they think they know everything and like to lecture to everyone.

Outstanding because of the wins and titles won, but legendary because of the mutual respect and affection he developed with so many of his players. Nothing but the best wishes for Pop~

He started in the Front Office in the 90s. Was pissed and wanted to coach. Now he’s just going back to the office

Even though I am not a spurs fan I still like coach pop and itβs sad to see him go

Fantastic for almost 2 decades when he had hall of fame talent. God awful the last 5 seasons when he didnt. Still great coach but despicable human being for how he treats anyone who thinks different.

Love this Man = absolute Legend. He cultivated & developed talent. Pop had an NFL mentality. He is honestly the Goat.

Good thing he cussed out all those who didnβt want the jab, and then he suffered the jab stroke.

A lot of coaches legacies are based on rings. Ya Pop got those but it’s how he got those guys there and the men he helped build. To have that much success for that long egos tend to get in the way after awhile. Not these guys. Robinson, Timmy, Parker, Manu, Kerr and so many other won and still remained humble. That’s beyond coaching, that’s respect. Show me 3 NBA players now who respect their coach.

Gregg Popovich is a gentleman with a lot of integrity only wish him the best.

Popovich was the only greatest and famous coach left from the 90 basketball. I am happy he has made a good decision for himself.

i could see taylor jenkins as the next spurs coach, spurs basically have the same stars with higher upside as memphis ja,des,jjj to spurs fox,vassel,wemby. also his probably willing to be under the wing of pop for couple of yrs
