    Gregg Popovich Can’t Wait for the Season to Start


    This should cause the other 29 NBA coaches to lose some sleep: “All along, Popovich wished his offseason were shorter, that it hadn’t begun in April after a first-round playoff loss against Dallas. Now, he’s wishing it were over completely. After the most eventful summer of his San Antonio tenure, Popovich is ready to get back to work. ‘You can only relax so much,’ Popovich said during an informal fat-chewing session with reporters Tuesday at the Spurs’ Northwest-side headquarters. ‘You can only chase players so much. My stomach is starting to churn. I’m getting anxious.’ In a sense, Popovich is like a kid at Christmas brunch. His new toys have been unwrapped. He is eager to start playing with them.”

      i feel u pop. I’m still playing 2k9 everyday just to get a fix.

    • Enigmatic Posted: Aug.26 at 10:47 am
      I stay on that 2k9 too, can’t wait for 2k10! At least football season it about to start, won’t have to settle for just baseball (yawn). But until the NBA starts, I won’t be satisfied.

      almost half the comments are nba 2k-related. anyone going to get the 2k10 draft combine?

    • la huey Posted: Aug.26 at 2:57 pm
      oh, and I’m excited to see the Spurs next season. Although I don’t think they will be doing anything more than fighting Denver, Dallas, and Portland for the right to lose to LA in the WCF

      I had to start playing nba live 09 to make it feel like I got a new game.

    • Dacre Posted: Aug.27 at 12:03 am
      NBALive 09 is what I got…
      I wanted to hire K9 to see what it’s all about…I’ve heard it’s better, slower play of the ball which is good, less arcade-y and all that… …Lets go Suns.
