NBA – After the beating, Gregg Popovich’s shock exit on the Spurs: “I’m totally…

While the Spurs have just suffered yet another correction against the Clippers, this Monday (99-124), Gregg Popovich delivered a statement that was surprising to say the least.

Many fans of the Texan franchise have complained about it.

The Spurs dreamed of a great start to the season, especially since the arrival of the 1st choice of the last edition of the Draft, Victor Wembanyama.

Unfortunately for them, they very quickly fell back into their ways after encouraging first outings.

The Texans are even taking a series of beatings these days, and are thus positioned at the bottom of the class in the Western Conference (3-11).

Things have clearly not improved for them in recent hours with a 9th consecutive defeat suffered against the Clippers.

In addition, the bill once again turned out to be very steep for the men of Gregg Popovich (99-124), who strangely does not seem to be alarmed.

On the contrary, the legendary coach expressed his “satisfaction” following this 25-point setback at home.

After this statement, one could say that the Spurs’ current poor record was long predicted by Popovich, and that he expects things to improve as the season progresses.

Still, such comments may be surprising coming from the coach who holds the NBA record for the number of career victories and has no less than 5 titles to his name.

Many San Antonio fans therefore began to doubt his abilities to carry out the franchise project. For them, Coach Pop’ could simply be overwhelmed by events:
