Joyful For Now, Popovich Will Get Past It

He went to Tony Parker's wedding. Traveled to Istanbul and Serbia with friends. Took his usual respite in Maine. And sampled a few bottles of wine that, if applied to the Spurs' payroll, would put the franchise over the salary cap. Gregg Popovich could live this way for the rest of his life. He has more money than he ever dreamed he would have, as well as more titles than other coaches could ever dream of having. He has nothing left to prove, unless it's with an Oregon vineyard. So why does he return today to do something he says he doesn't enjoy? Because he enjoys it.
