Pop hospitalized.

Even good stroke recoveries leave a lot of lingering effects. My step dad seemed to recover from his but was incredibly depressed. His last Christmas he seemed great but it was basically a goodbye tour.

Wonder if Spurs will be interested in Brown. Assume he'd want some of our assistants and we'd oblige.
 
Dude is an amazing man.

Was a basketball coach at my college and contracted my girl friend to paint the mascot on the hardwood floor. I had no talent but was brought along to help fill in the lines. Pop would come out and chat with us.

5 or so years later I was attending summer league at Loyola Marymount watching the Clippers as I was a Clipper season ticket holder. After their game, I came out of the bleachers and walked up to Pop and Alvin Gentry who were both assistants chatting. Damn if he didn’t remember me and say hi and chat for a bit.

10 or so years go past and I had season tickets at the old Arco behind the basket right next to the visitors tunnel. We were there for a Spurs game and Pop was walking off the floor. Amazingly he saw me and stopped to say hello.

the world will be a worse place when he goes.
