What was your biggest takeaway from playing for Gregg Popovich?

Sochan: My biggest takeaway is definitely that he is the greatest. He’s respected by everyone.

For me, I saw him as a coach but also as a father figure. He gave such an education on justice and different things going on in the world, I think he made me and everyone else realize that it’s bigger than basketball. There are more important things in life that also need attention. At the end of day, we are all humans. We’re not always going to be perfect. It’s all about learning and experiencing the ups and downs and becoming a better person and a better basketball player.

When you are going out to eat with him, you let him pick the wine. He is an enthusiast. He knows everything about wine. His collection is crazy. You don’t touch that menu. I’m worldly, but he is too. He’s all about trying different things, eating good food, and good conversation about life and basketball. It’s about being in the present moment and having a good conversation.
