That is not true at all. Pop fired the coach after the Spurs started off badly and Robinson got hurt. Popvich LEAD the tank, as GM and Coach, drafted Duncan and the rest is history. They sat Robinson out the whole year, and limited Elliot, Del Negro and Person.
Duncan's first year was Pop's second season as coach.
Pop was the original tank commander.
Wow. I had no idea pop was the gm before becoming coach
