The San Antonio Spurs are an excellent basketball team, but many NBA fans see their style of play as boring or uninteresting. Against the Warriors on Monday, a contrast in styles was glaringly evident as the Warriors put on a show en route to a 30 point blow-out.
Pop seemingly frustrated with the blow-out loss to the Warriors had these comments before Wednesday’s match up against Houston:
‘I’m a little tired of that, I’m looking for some people who are going to start asking people to go to some bars and do some stuff. I think a little ‘street cred’ would help us. We are a little boring, so I agree with them all. It’s true.”
Of course, Pop’s comments are designed to light a fire under his team, knowing that championship caliber teams need an edge to be successful.
I guess Popovich forgot that Tony Parker was in a bar fight with Chris Brown and almost lost an eye, so he may need to reach out to Steven Jackson again.
