Gregg Popovich Labels Steve Kerr As An “a**hole”
A significant amount of hostility exists between certain coaches and players on the eve of the NBA season in 2023.
Gregg Popovich‘s curt response to Steve Kerr when the coach of the Golden State Warriors mentioned Victor Wembanyama served as a reminder of this.
Many people think the Frenchman is the ideal prospect; he was selected first overall by Popovich’s San Antonio Spurs in the 2023 NBA Draft.
Wembanyama is thought to be the one who will lead the NBA into the next decade, continuing where LeBron James left off, even though Zion Williamson came before him.
Wembanyama still draws notice despite his extraordinarily distinctive stature and skill set, and that’s briefly what occurred following the Spurs’ 122-117 preseason victory over the Warriors on Friday night.
Wembanyama stole the event with 19 points and many highlight-reel moves.

Victor Wembanyama was the subject of Steve Kerr’s comments.
Wembanyama‘s entry has given a franchise fresh life that hasn’t had a genuine chance of winning a championship in years, Steve Kerr said after the game.
“Pop is bouncing off the walls; he’s really excited.”

Popovich, 74, wasn’t pleased with Kerr’s claim that Wembanyama’s abilities had even managed to revive his enthusiasm for the sport and coaching.
Who or what was reviving me? Was I locked up in a psychiatric hospital, or was I just miserable and curled up in my bedroom or something? Popovich proclaimed that Steve is a *****.
Certainly, Popovich and Kerr are genuinely good friends, and he quickly responded to this remark with a flood of laughter.
