Once, the most beautiful fairy tale I heard was not Xingye's 10,000-year vow, but Popovich's one:
I'll retire within ten seconds of Duncan's retirement.
And I also felt at one point that after Duncan retired, I would not watch the Spurs and then watch the NBA.
Fast forward to seven years since Duncan announced his retirement in 2016, and my enthusiasm for the Spurs has not waned, and I still watch the Spurs play, but what about Popovich?
The news came that he had just signed a five-year, $80 million contract with the Spurs, and the 74-year-old may be working until he is 80 years old, or maybe he will renew it at that time...
Who knows?
What this old man said, even the punctuation marks are hard to believe, he said that he would give Harden a car, did send Harden a car; He said that he didn't like three-pointers, but he had the four cannon kings who had a reputation for shaking the rivers and lakes, and smashed the Thunder's home court...
5 years 80 million, his disciple Monty Williams' six-year 78.5 million league number one high-paid coach position was kicked off again before it was hot.
Spurs reporters tweeted that Popovich repeatedly expressed last season that money was what kept him in charge...
This reporter, I'm afraid that he also caught Popovich's way, this level of speech is exactly the same as Popovich's.
Passed on, Popovich thought about continuing to coach because he had no money to spend.
Now it seems that it should be the old man who sees another champion more than 20 years later, and his heart is very excited, high and low first the whole 5 years, 5 years, enough time for him to build another champion team.
To be honest, I thought so too.
80 million is an affirmation of this famous marshal who is full of peach and plum and has countless honors, and the disciples are paid so high, as a master, Popovich cannot be low.
For Wenban, this is definitely good news, as soon as he debuted, there is such a grandfather-level coach to adjust him, which can take many fewer detours than others, and his career can be better planned.
For us who eat melons and watch the ball, it is also good news, the current Spurs, who will coach us will pinch a sweat, only this gray-haired old man personally comes, we feel relieved.
Yesterday's first summer union, some people looked worried, but Popovich, who was sitting on the sidelines, looked calm, with a confident look, a posture of strategizing.
Others say that the literary class must be watery, bah! I don't believe it, you look seriously, the old man's expression is the appearance of Zhuangyuan Water?
However, it is not surprising that in addition to the Spurs, there must be many people in the other 29 teams who hope that the water of the literary class will fall, because they do not get the literary class, and they will say that the grapes are sour if they can't eat grapes, and they wish that the literary class could not play it, waiting to see the joke of the literary class.
In this regard, I just want to say that you can put a thousand hearts, I can't guarantee other teams, but the Spurs never have water - as long as Popovich is there, he has no water.
Losing the draft can train you to become a starter and a star player, the top show, give some time, patience, watch the old man adjust it.
