Coaching bio
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — This
was supposed to be a good day for
the San Antonio Spurs. It was
December 1996 and David
Robinson was returning from an
injury.
Leave it to Gregg Popovich to
kill the mood.
Popovich, the general manager,
fired coach Bob Hill before that
night’s game in Phoenix. He
appointed himself coach, and it
was hardly a popular decision.
“It was made with a lot of
thought and a lot of counsel and a
lot of heartache,” Popovich
explained at the time, admitting
the scenario looked “quite self-
serving.”
He was never one to let on that
he worried what others thought of
him. The same holds true today.
As San Antonio heads into the
NBA Finals today against the New
York Knicks, Popovich is doing his
job in typical no-nonsense fash
ion. Sometimes brash, always dis
ciplined, he is leading the Spurs
further in the playoffs than they’ve
ever gone before.
“Pop has stayed on us,” guard
Mario Elie said. “Pop just wants
us to get better every day, and he’s
been doing a good job.”
The way the Spurs marched
into the championship series —
losing only one game to
Minnesota in the first round then
sweeping the Los Angeles Lakers
and Portland Trail Blazers —
demonstrated Popovich’s work
manlike approach.
Popovich struggled through a
public relations nightmare after fir
ing Hill, then led the Spurs to the
franchise’s worst record that sea
son (20-62). He redeemed himself
in the summer of 1997 when the
Spurs won the NBA Draft lottery.
Tim Duncan was the top prize.
With the 7-footer from Wake
Forest on board and Robinson
recuperating, the Spurs were on
the mend and on the way toward
winning again.

Van Gundy masters art of survh
NEW YORK (AP) —Jeff Van
Gundy got around to telling stories
the other day, and rather than
spinning some tale about one of
Pat Riley’s speeches or his days at
Providence with Rick Pitino, he
told one about himself when he
was just out of college.
It was 1985, and his mother
had helped him get a $5-an-hour
job as a teacher’s assistant for
troubled youngsters at one of the
elementary schools in her upstate
New York district. He went there
in the morning, then coached a
high school team at McQuaid
Jesuit in the afternoons.
On his first morning of work,
Van Gundy saw a 10-year-old boy
walk into school with a brick and
throw it through the window as he
yelled “I hate school!”
“Survival,” Van Gundy
recalled with a laugh. “It was a
job of survival.”
Fourteen years later, that job
description has remained the
same.
Van Gundy has never been as
much of a survivor as he was this
season, when Madison Square
Garden president Dave Checketts
addressed a rift in the organization
by sparing Van Gundy’s job and
demoting general manager Ernie
Grunfeld, who had built the team.
