The AEEB, which is the Spanish Association of Basketball Coaches, organizes an annual trip where its members spends some time with an NBA team\'s coaching staff. One of my friends is a consultant to the AEEB, and has gone on the trip with them in the previous few years. This year they spent time with the Spurs. Being a huge basketball fan, I had to ask him what the trip was like. This is what he told me:
While he had met previous coaches such as Rick Carlisle, Rick Adelmen, and Mike Brown, none of them were nearly as interactive as Pop was and he even hosted a private dinner. He talked about his basketball philosophies and how he decides upon which players to add to his team. Whenever he interviews someone in free agency or in the draft, he never talks of basketball and instead talks about personal life and current news events to make sure that the player has something in him other than basketball. He doesn\'t take self-entitled players as that would ruin team chemistry and he wants his team to be full of intelligent players playing the right way. Pop himself said that if he had to make a decision between an American player and a slightly lesser International player, he would choose the International player because he has noticed that American players are often more arrogant and self-entitled which is not what he is looking for. This is why much of his team is composed largely of foreign born players.
After the 2013 finals loss, the team was understandably devastated after coming so close to the championship. Rather than ignore what happened, Pop actually showed his team game tape of the finals to show to his team that they only had themselves to blame and not some basketball gods cursing them so they can\'t win a championship. Pop frequently shows his team current news events to help them understand that there is much more than to life than basketball and that the ultimate goal is not to win the championship but to be the best person they can be. He makes it clear that there are much worse things than life than not winning the championship. This help to calm down the players and lessen the pressure put upon them.

西班牙篮球教练联盟（AEEB）每年会组织成员去和某只NBA球队的教练组进行交流。我的一个朋友是AEEB的顾问，前几年他也参加了这个活动。今年他们去了马刺。作为一个铁杆篮球迷，我怎么能不问问他的经历呢。他给我讲了如下故事：

他以前也曾见过卡莱尔，阿德尔曼，迈克布朗这样的著名教头，但他们都没有波波这样乐于交流；波波甚至以个人名义组织了晚餐。波波讲述了自己的篮球哲学，以及他如何为自己的球队挑选球员。当他和自由球员或者待选新秀交流的时候，他从来不说篮球，而是与他们谈人生以及讨论时事；波波希望通过这样的谈话确定，这些球员并不是只知道打球。他不要唯我独尊的球员，以免破坏队内的“化学反应”；他希望自己的球队拥有聪慧的球员，能够用正确的方式打球。波波自己承认，如果他必须在美国本土球员和水平稍微低一点点的国际球员之间选一个，他倾向于选国际球员。因为他发现美国球员一般更骄傲、更自以为是，而这不是他想要的特质。所以他的队伍中有很多国际球员。

2013年总决赛失利之后，球队上下都有点崩溃，毕竟他们与总冠军擦肩而过。波波没有对此视而不见；事实上，他给球队重放了总决赛录像，告诉大家冠军是被他们自己送掉的，不要去怪篮球之神不给他们青眼。另外，波波经常引导球员们关注新闻时事，他让大家明白，他们的生活中并不是只有篮球；他们的终极目标不是去夺冠、而是做最好的自己。他明确地告诉球员们，人生中有太多事比失去冠军要糟糕很多。这让球员们冷静下来，也减轻了他们的心理压力。
（老爷子，您是人生导师啊，难怪大家都把你当父亲一样看待！这种心灵鸡汤一样的话，怎么您说出来就好像能说到人心里……）
（后面还有两段涉及到没做成的关于家嫂的交易以及科比的性格，跟波波本人没太大关系，也容易引起口水，我就不翻了。大家有兴趣可以自己去原帖看。）

Oh man, I can just imagine some poor kid at a draft workout for the Spurs, fresh out of college, thinking he\'s done all he can on the court to win them over. Up walks Popovich,
Tell me your thoughts about the situation in Syria
刺蜜：
天哪，想象一下这个情景：某个可怜的孩子去参加马刺的选秀训练营，他刚刚迈出大学校园，认为自己在球场上的表现无可挑剔、绝对能让马刺另眼相看。然后他走到波波维奇身边——
“谈谈你对叙利亚局势的看法。”

Kawhi\'s face when he realises he needs to complete and upload his 3rd draft essay about Serbian and Croatian relations during the 90\'s by 5:30pm tomorrow to Pops private server.


刺蜜：
瞧瞧卡哇伊这表情。他刚想起来，必须在明天下午5:30前把关于“90年代塞尔维亚和克罗地亚之间的关系”的论文第三稿写完、并提交到波波的专用服务器。

That\'s gotta be the saddest player who posted a 22-5-2-3 game I\'ve ever seen...ESPN check the history books for me!
狼蜜：
我觉得这位同学是交出“22-5-2-3”答卷后最忧伤的运动员……ESPN，快来帮我查查历史纪录确认一下！
（ESPN非常喜欢数据统计……播出比赛的时候会列出所有相干不相干、要紧不要紧的纪录，经常因此被球迷TX）

TA Tim Duncan corrections:
"When you said the JNA had paved the way to independence through disarmament, you mentioned Slovakia when it was Slovenia. I\'m just glad you understood the precursor to the conflict."
SD快船蜜：
助教蒂姆·邓肯的修改意见：
“你在文中提到，南斯拉夫人民军通过裁军为独立铺路，这里你把斯洛文尼亚写成斯洛温尼亚了。你能够理解那是冲突的前兆，这一点做的不错。”

I\'m not the only one who thinks Coach Pop would be the greatest teacher if you had him in high school, right?
公牛蜜：
我觉得波波要是在高中教学，他肯定会成为最伟大的老师。我不是一个人吧？

Only if you\'re one of those kids who try to learn and pay attention, If you\'re lazy his class would be hell.
刺蜜：
除非你努力学习注意听讲。你要是爱偷懒，他的课就是炼狱了。

Just ask myself "would coach Pop want me on his team?" every morning. My self improvement reminder :)
公牛蜜：
每天早上问问自己“波波教练会不会收我进球队？”——这是我“吾日三省吾身”的方法:)

Vintage Duncan (1999).

复古款邓肯（1999年酿制）




----------------------

Pop had thought that Pau Gasol would mesh perfectly with the Spurs with his personality and playstyle, and for the fact that he was foreign born. The Spurs went hard after him and were at one point convinced that he was going to sign with them. However, Pau Gasol later informed the Spurs that he wouldn't be signing with them simply becuase he did not want to go to the team that had just won the championship and he thought that he would get more glory if he won a championship with another team.

波波认为，保罗加索尔以其性格，球风,及他也是个非美籍球员的事实，能够与马刺体系无缝对接。当时马刺苦苦追求大加，并一度确信他将签约。然而后来大加告知马刺他不会加盟，原因是他不希望加入卫冕冠军的队伍，在他看来，如果跟随另一支球队夺取总冠军，会获得更多的荣誉。   

华山小书童

马刺都是一群奇葩。

SpikeCold

大加是没想到罗斯这个坑货会又报销结果和天元突破布当了队友

当然要是去马刺肯定没有这个数据也进不了全明星了

这段话确实引口水，不过人家戒指在手，追求更适宜发挥的环境和薪水也没错

反正都比卧虎好

拥挤的屋顶

哈哈哈哈哈
