Gregg Popovich has been known to hit the nail on the head with a single sentence, such as “It didn’t go through the hole,” or “Get the ball closer to the orange rim.” And I’m sure former Spurs gaurd Bryn Forbes remembers what Popovich advised him to do going into 2016’s Summer League.
“He just told me to shoot it,” the former Michigan State player is on record saying during the tournament. Sure, you don’t need to be a prophet to tell Forbes (who reportedly downed 77 out of 100 three-point attempts at one of his pre-draft workouts) to shoot it.
