1. Gregg Popovich calls it a career?
There is no doubt that Gregg Popovich has put together a Hall-of-Fame career over the years. He has won five titles and was the best coach in the league for many years. During this current phase that the San Antonio Spurs are in, it will be interesting to see how much longer he has on the sideline.
Popovich is set to turn 73 years old this season. He has one of the best careers of a head coach in NBA history and built a great dynasty in San Antonio.
At his age, Popovich might not be interested in rebuilding the current roster. This could lead him to potentially retire once the season is complete.
This all depends on his intentions and what he wants to handle moving forward. Popovich is one of the coaches who can retire under his own will when he feels like it was the right time.

If this year is the right time, it seems like a smart move. Popovich has nothing to prove and it will be quite some time before the Spurs can return to championship status. This means Popovich will not have a chance to retire on top so it could happen very soon.
