Gregg Popovich

Gregg Popovich had a funny response to praise he received from Brett Brown ahead of Wednesday’s game between their teams.

Brown, who was an assistant coach under Popovich in San Antonio, called Pop the best NBA coach ever. Pop gave a straight-faced response, saying Brown is full of s—.

The video is below but contains the profanity:

Brown was part of the Spurs’ organization from 1998-1999 and 2002-2013 before getting the head coaching job with the Philadelphia 76ers. His Sixers enter the game with the better record, but Pop having San Antonio 27-21 the season after losing Kawhi Leonard, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, is as impressive as ever.
