— -- SAN ANTONIO -- As much as Gregg Popovich has a reputation for being an impossible interviewee, it's rare when he doesn't leave reporters with something worth printing.
And so, after his pregame rap with the media seemed to be winding down after just two minutes of terse answers from the San Antonio Spurs head coach, Pop offered to extend the session. If nothing else, it would take his mind off all the machinations of defensive schemes and rotations that a head coach runs through right before the start of a playoff series.
First, he tried out a bit of humor.
"I didn't even have any wine last night because it's a noon game," said Popovich, lamenting the early start. "That's the worst part about a noon game."
