How was it a bad coach job? Pop was screaming for the foul.

They are Pros, they should know to foul.

Retire, Pop. It’s been an all world career, but, it’s time...

Pop would've fouled before any of his players.

I don't think I've ever seen something that stupid given that the series was on the line. Accidental or intentional.

Nah, you can see Forbes motioning for the foul after Pop is yelling. I think after a while, Pop was just like Well F it

When was the last time all eight of the Top 4 seeds won in the first round?

If just 1 of Aldridge or DeRozan showed up the Spurs would have won. That's the travesty of this game.

...huh? did you not see pop like a maniac on the sidelines telling them to foul?

Even with the crowd, these guys are supposed to be professionals. Not fouling is about as dumb as it gets, yet the professionals who get paid millions to play this game and to know this stuff didn't.

Cant blame LMA for not being able to hear Pop, but no excuse for not knowing that’s a must foul situation or not at least bother to look over for instructions.

Probably still not as bad as Derozan preserving his % by not heaving a three trying to draw a foul and a miracle play.

I mean, he was already almost to center court. I don't know what else could he have done there. I guess that a coach actively fouling a player isn't covered in the rules :lol:

Thats what I think too. Pop is literally on the court next to the official gesturing and nobody was doing anything.

You can put that game on DeMar for sure. But I'm assuming you're referencing the 4th quarter. He wasnt bad in the 4th quarter.
