SAN ANTONIO (AP) -Gregg Popovich joked last summer that he should be fired if the revamped Spurs didn’t win a fifth title this season.
He’ll be back. Who else will be is the question.
Popovich said Monday that this season was the most difficult of his 14 years in San Antonio. He cited the struggles the Spurs had adjusting to a roster overhaul they hoped would restore their championship form.
The Spurs wound up being the No. 7 seed and were swept by Phoenix in the Western Conference semifinals.
Popovich expects a less busy summer this time. Tony Parker and general manager R.C. Buford also sounded like the star point guard isn’t going anywhere despite his contract expiring next season.
