Personally, I’m not sure what impresses me more: The fact that the Lakers are entertaining a coaching prospect Kobe is known to love, or that the team [...]

Golden State Warriors fans may or may not owe San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich a thank you. Unless you don’t like Steve Kerr, that is. Then you might owe him an ass-kicking. According to the New York Post‘s Gregg Popovich, Kerr sought Coach Pop’s advice before agreeing to replace Mark Jackson as head [...]
