It’s an understatement to call San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich’s career a success. He’s a lock for the Basketball Hall of Fame, whenever he decides to stop coaching, with five championships (maybe more on the way) and an impeccable resume. It’s difficult for most coaches to come close to his work in San Antonio, which has been a loaded two decades of winning seasons.
Speaking of wins, Popovich noticeably climbed the all-time list for coaches in an earlier part of the 2017-18 season. He moved into sixth place, topping Phil Jackson.
Well, on Tuesday night, the Spurs defeated the New York Knicks.
