If he grabs Brad Stevens for one of his assistants...we're never losing.

You'll have to limit LeBron to play just 3 quarters.

I wonder how this will change player development. Guys have been turning into monsters after being under Coach K and his staff for a while now.

A bunch of Alphas are going to learn some alpha ball movement. :pimp:

And Coach K isn't completely out of the picture, I believe they still have him retained as a "special advisor" or something of that nature, whatever the **** that entails.

Yes, because guys like LeBron and Durant would be Maggette and McRoberts without him. Oh wait.

pop turned guys like parker, duncan, ginobili into stars.

Gonna be exciting to see what he can do with actual star players.

The only thing Pop needs to develop is workable chemistry.

None of those players are gonna develop anything but foreign ***** fever while they cruise through the international competition.

LeBronze James will most likely be in the starting lineup.

I think the more interesting revelation is that Pop is probably gonna coach the Spurs until at least 2020 as well. I mean, do we really think Pop would continue to coach Team USA after retiring from the NBA?

I wonder if a promise was made to Aldridge when he signed? Because 2020 is around when Aldridge's contract will be finished as well.

Pop said he's retiring when Duncan does, so this means Duncan is also going to play until 2020.

:eek:

Timmy will have the GOAT longevity and 8-9 rings when it's all said and done. Top 3 dead or alive.
