Pop is one of the fakest humans of all time. He copied Jerry Sloan’s grumpiness for his first 10 years coaching. Are we even sure he’s a good coach? Duncan & Manu could have coached those Spur teams to titles. He will retire if wemby doesn’t turn into Duncan 2.0. Which he won’t. https://t.co/DNxyAjW5vH

Got a LOT of my early M2M sets from Jerry Sloan. Loved how he used Stockton and Hornacek as screeners for Malone/Bigs which then forced the defense to remain at a disadvantage trying to defend the follow-up action. https://t.co/c7atGsBn8D
