    Why would Popovich leave SA to come to Houston?

    He's perhaps the greatest coach in NBA history even next to Phil or Red, and he's also the President/GM of the Spurs and gets to pay himself $11 million a year.

    People are just dumb.

    Also, he built the aqueduct. Don’t forget about that one.

    But other than that...








    What have the Romans ever done for us?!?!?

    Phil is less like the Romans and more like Ghengis Khan. Built a great empire as well, but on the backs of others.

    No way this happens. Pop is more likely to retire than to change teams. The Rockets should go after Becky Hammond though. I feel like she is going to be Pop 2.0

    Pop's gonna be our coach.

    And I'm going to father children with the SI Swimsuit models. Plural.

    If I were famous, this would be NEWS, buddies! But look for the TMZ story, 9 or 10 months from now: "Did this sad sack father BOTH their kids?" (Clutchfans) "Is that him? I KNOW THAT GUY!"

    I thought you were talking about Bree Olson when I first glanced.

    sounds like a pipe dream. Also when an outlet calls our offense “inefficient”, it just drains its credibility in my eyes.

    I posted this mostly because pretty much every other potential had a thread already. Most of those don't have any legs either.

    Sometimes what you see in pipe smoke comes true ;)
