When does Gregg Popovich get his due?
Just wondering when everyone wants to talk about Phil Jackson, Larry Brown, or the brothers Van Gundy when does 2-time ring winner, one-time coach of the year, 3-time best record in the NBA, current highest winning % of all NBA coaches, 8th highest playoff winning %, and currently gunning for his 3rd ring in 9 years coach Gregg Popovich get his due?
I love Larry Brown and think he's a fabulous coach, but his career NBA accomplishments pale compared to Pop, yet he is considered the current coaching genius of the league. Where's the love for the guy who really is the current best in the biz?
