Also, from Woj: Spurs coach Gregg Popovich’s new five-year deal is worth more than $80 million, sources tell ESPN. His deal resets the coaching market after Monty Williams’ recent six-year, $78.5 million deal with Detroit.

    He saw one game from Wemby and decided he wants to stick around a bit more.

    Seriously though, every nba fan should be happy to see this today, a league without Pop would not be the same.

      I’m so happy right now. I hope he sticks around for all 5.

    Good to see Pop sticking around. Not sure how much it changes the coaching market though. I’d say this is a pretty unique deal for a long term coach sticking with a franchise after having brought them success over his tenure while building a culture and training future coaches through their system.

    I thought Hubie Brown was 80 when he coached the Grizzlies (69 apparently) back in the mid-00s.

    So, Pop indeed has him beat.

    Im glad to see coachs are finally getting bags. Its not fair that absolute bums be out here making $100m while the guys who have to make it all work getting paid relative peanuts lol

    Looking forward to more years of his interviews and commentary. Great news for the league and Wemby!
