SAN ANTONIO — For a man who Warriors coach Steve Kerr argued has presidential qualities, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich had no interest acting like a career politician. So when Popovich heard that Kerr would seriously vote for him as a presidential candidate in the 2020 election, the Spurs coach said something most would not say on the campaign trail.
“Just ask him who paid for the bill last night,” Popovich said before the Warriors’ victory over the Spurs on Thursday.
Kerr was asked, and it explained why Popovich’s mood may have been sour for reasons besides talking to reporters.
