Why? The system.
When did the Spurs get the system? When Pop got there? Nope.
Why, cuz how did Pop get the gig?
He was an assistant to Larry. Larry started the Spurs greatness and installed the system. Pop coaches the Larry way!
Fire Larry? Please. Fire Chaney, WIlkens, Herb, Larry, bring in Herb? Why think it would get better?
Spurs are amazing.
Give Larry credit in Detroit. He took a good team and made them great. They are still great cuz they elevated and bought in. The Pistons were not getting it done with Carlisle, but got it done with larry.
Larry has the Cred, not the players.
I dont totally agree with this...between Brown and Pop, there were about were about 3 coaches and numerous player movements...
Avery Johnson
Dennis Rodman
Sean Elliot
Tim Duncan
and didnt Tarkarnian (sp) coach for like half season and didnt a terrible job.....someone else came in (Hill??)and the Spurs ended up going to the playoffs??
