There is something odd about watching the San Antonio Spurs lose a game. After all, legendary NBA coach Gregg Popovich is still at the helm.
The man at the helm of this team oversaw an NBA dynastic run of sustained success from the late 1990s into the mid-2000s.
Is there a reason why the Spurs are suffering so badly at the moment? Well, all good things must come to an end at some point. Tim Duncan retired. It has been requested that Kawhi Leonard be traded.
Despite the fact that the Spurs thought they would be able to contend forever, it was never going to happen. There was a time when they languished in mediocrity for quite some time.
NBA NEWS & TRADE RUMORS: Jordan Poole, Golden State Warriors & San Antonio Spurs Updates
As of now, they are outright tanking. The Spurs are losing despite Popovich’s enduring presence on the court because they do not have a player capable of carrying the offense for an NBA team.
Would it be possible for them to change that next year by acquiring Jordan Poole from the Golden State Warriors?
