Gregg Popovich

San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich does not like dealing with the media at the best of times. Get him after a blowout playoff loss, and you’re really in trouble.

Popovich was in top form after the Spurs lost 113-92 to the Golden State Warriors in Game 1 of the Western Conference quarterfinals, giving a press conference that was both amazing and blunt even by his standards.

Every line is gold. It’s par for the course from Popovich — he loves to torment reporters, especially if he finds their questions to be silly or obvious. After a game like this, he was never going to be in a great mood, and it may not be the last time we see Surly Pop in this series.
