One More Reason Gregg Popovich is a Bad Ass and Leg Day!

This week San Antonio Spurs' coach Gregg Popovich made news again for all the right reasons. "Pop" hired Becky Hammon as an assistant coach for the NBA champions. Hammon is a six time WNBA All-Star and was voted one of the top 15 players in WNBA history. In July 2013 Hammon blew out her ACL and during her rehab she attended Spurs practices, meetings, games and was often asked her opinion by the head coach. In the end Popovich hired the best person for the job stating, "I'm confident her basketball IQ, work ethic and interpersonal skills will be a great benefit to the Spurs." This made Hammon the first full-time female coach in NBA history.

Today's quote is from Becky Hammon:

"I'll be doing the same thing all the other assistants will be doing."
