He rode Tim Duncan's coattails his entire career, and he's full of himself.
So you're saying he's a good coach only if he gets strangely loyal superstars. Got it.500,000ags said:
Pop is a GOAT. You guys claiming his greatness was due to Duncan, are moronic, or just sour on his politics. Had Kawhi been as loyal as Duncan, Spurs are still competing at a high level. It's not easy to build a champion in a small market, without a strange loyalty from your superstars. Look at Duncan in SA, Dirk in Dallas, or OKC's inability to keep Durant.

That's your strawman, not mine. I think he is a solid coach with a GOAT GM. RC Buford is the hero, not Poppovich. And Tim Duncan wasn't just "a" star player. He was one of the greatest at his position, ever, AND he was willing to give up half his salary so the Spurs could build around him. Pop won the jackpot, and has repeatedly said so.Average Joe said:96AgGrad said:So you're saying he's a good coach only if he gets strangely loyal superstars. Got it.500,000ags said:

Please name an NBA coach that won championships without a star player.
So, who would you rather have as your NBA coach? You keep saying why he's not the best, tell me who you would have ahead of him?96AgGrad said:

Which 9 coaches would you put ahead of him? For that matter which 4 coaches would you put ahead of him?MapGuy said:
Can this thread get removed too by staff. Not the best, maybe top five or ten but his wokeness was over the top

I would rank it:
1. Phil
2. Red Auerbach
3. Pat Riley
4-7, Teir that is a combo of Pop, Larry Brown, Rudy T, and Jerry Sloan
8-10: Next tier down with a combo of Chuck Daly, Doc Rivers, and Billy Cunningham
