Popovich interrupts game to scold his own fans

[Shamon30]

Met Pop years ago when I was a sports reporter for a small newspaper. He was running a basketball camp, and I ran into him randomly on the street and asked if he had a few minutes some time (not right then) to give me a quote or two for a story on his camp. He replied, "I came here to get away from people like you." Hated the guy ever since. Worthless pustule, as far as I'm concerned.

Guy is a first-class jerk. I've seen him twice and he was rude and arrogant on both occasions.

Pop's great but fans can boo, man. You want to criticize them after the game, fine, but that was silly.

It's Black Friday, get yourself a TV.

I hadn't pictured you that way, but there's a definite a GossipGuy look.

My TV-watching window has happily closed up for the day, and if you're trying to hustle me into mindless consumerism, shouldn't you be pushing it through an affiliate link?

So Celtics fans seemed a little dopey then for booing Ray when he returned to TD Garden in a Heat Jersey, hey he won a championship getting the big 3 started so don’t boo him.

We’re Redsox fans dopey for booing Johnny Damon when he returned to Fenway as a Yankee, hey he won them a ring breaking an 85 year curse.

Yes. It doesn't always need to be stopped. But the answer is a resounding yes.

By all accounts, pop has treated anyone he feels is below him terribly for many years. Now all of a sudden, booing a pro athlete offends his sensibilities.
It's about as hypocritical as it gets.

Threads hilarious, who knew Pop had this kind of pop

Of course he triples down and then gives a lecture on what's wrong with our society now. I really wish the league would discipline him.

Well the Spurs have lost 11 in a row, maybe Pop should worry about ending that streak.

Lol amazed they’re still asking about this.. What did he says wrong with our society now? Video stopped before I got to the lecture

Throwing objects on the court is totally unacceptable

Booing a kid is unacceptable

Booing a professional athlete making crazy millions is not on the same class

What if that kid happened to be Laettner? …I think sometimes it’s fine to boo college kids…

An attention deprived weenie? Well, ok, if you want to claim the mantle…
