    Default Anyone else sick of Coach Pop's interviews?

    First off, as a coach I think he's top 5 all-time and a brilliant man so this is no slight to his coaching.

    But I'm really getting sick of how every intermission they got to get a coach Pop interview in and play out his snarky standoffish demeanor. It was comical the first few times but now it just seems like a huge tiresome act.
    Pop, just answer the damn questions without being so condescending! And TNT, the joke is getting old, give Spolstra some shine!

    If I was coaching I would be pissed about the interviews during the game too.

    Doris Burk: Pop, What upset you most about the turnovers that led to transition baskets?
    Pop: they were turnovers.

    come on, what else is he going to say? the turnover its self is the most upsetting part. and she basically answered her own question. the turnovers led to transition baskets

    I agree that sometimes he can be a douche and snarky but he does get asked some dumb questions.

    post game report: what is the game plan for stopping lebron?
    Pop: you want me to tell you our game plan?

    I'm sure he is, but it comes off as a same old song and dance routine. I get it it, he doesn't like to talk strategy...let's have another angle

    I'm not pointing the finger entirely at Pop, the network should stop embellishing it as well.
    I also get the feeling that because it's Pop he gets away with it. If Spoltra interviewed the same way people would call him an idiot.

    He's a high functioning sociopath who hates the spotlight. Deal with it.

    In game 2:
    -What do you want to see in the 4th quarter?
    -Lebron playing poorly.

    Spoelstra isn't a high functioning sociopath and would correctly be called an idiot in this case.

    He would correctly be called an idiot in many other cases as well.

    Majority of the questions asked post-game to a coach are pointless so can't blame him.

    Yeah he could take a dump in the middle of the court and everybody would be like "oh, Pop! ha ha!"

    I don't mind what Pop is doing at all. If I was in his position, I would do the same thing. This is the NBA finals, I would not give out any strategy and info that would give any advantage to the opponent. Questions like " What adjustments are you going to make at the second half or the next game? ".

    Do you think Pop would give you the answer?
