But when Portland reached out for intel from San Antonio figures, the background on Hammon was not nearly as complimentary pertaining to various aspects of day-to-day coaching responsibilities.

Seems like 👍 only thing holding Hammond back is handling the ego of an NBA Superstar player…
Magicman says
Tim wasn’t one…he allowed Pop to yell at him and treat him like the 15th man…
Magicman says
Neither was David Robinson…
Magicman says
This ish is a discipline…Pop is the NBAs version of Pai Mei…
Magicman says
An exceptionally cruel, blunt, domineering master. Demanding and overbearing…yet capable of being open-minded…
Magicman says
Pop hates the 3pt shot yet understood utilizing it as a weapon. Which he did…

Yep on David and Timmy being held accountable as the 15th man!
Magicman says
This man was going to be in the CIA had he not fallen into coaching…
Magicman says
So ask yourself: Would this man waste his time devoting and Imparting wisdom on someone he didn’t think could do the job????
Magicman says
He wouldn’t.
DJ2KB24 says
