Head coach of the National Basketball Association (NBA) club San Antonio “Spurs” Greg Popovich after the team did not enter the playoffs for the first time in 23 seasons, it was said that it is not worth dipping into memories.
The San Antonio Spurs have already reported a loss to Utah’s Jazz 112: 118 last night, finishing season 11th at the Western Conference and not being able to play in the eighth position in the West.
“Season 22 series? What are you talking about? Have you talked about it before, or is it only important now that it’s over? ” Popovich talked to the media in a post-match interview in a rather raised tone. But then Popovich’s voice softened, and he said, “I’m just kidding you.”
The Spurs knockout tournament played 22 consecutive seasons, a broken NBA record. In the same season, from 1950 to 1971, the Syracuse Nationals, which became the Philadelphia 76ers in 1964, also entered the elimination tournament.
“The series was probably very important to a lot of people, but I don’t like to linger in the past. What is happening today is much more important. What matters is the moment you are in, what you decide to do in it. I don’t think looking at the past leads to anything good. “
“It simply came to our notice then. I’m thrilled about how they played. They had no say in getting here, but they proved themselves by willpower. The development of these young children is great, this is the best level we have played this year, ”said the 71-year-old Spurs coach.
