Do you think Popovich can coach a guy like Lebron?

Look at how he's talking to Kawhi. Not saying what he did was horrible

Popovich has been downright lucky with the superstars he coached
- David Robinson (Ex Military)
- Tim Duncan (reserved type guy)
- Kawhi (Even more reserved borderline-mute type guy)

It got me thinking, could Popovich coach a guy like Lebron's personality? .
Outgoing, life of the party, does what he wants, gives his input on how to coach the team, etc

To be honest I don't think he can . He won't be able to bring the best out of Lebron
Similar to coaching a guy like Wilt, Iverson, Baron Davis, Magic Johnson, or Shaq

Oddly enough, I think Kobe and Popovich would make a great match though

I think he could be he would have to adopt the Red Auerbach approach lol a different set of rules for him and the other people on the squad.

Lebron would flourish in Pops system. He's a natural passer and facilitator.

I think Lebron would be fine with popovich to be honest, they seem to have huge respect for each other based on what they've said. They're both great basketball minds and would appreciate the chance to work together Imo.

And pop's system that maximises role players would be a dream come true for Lebron and his playing style.

Bron joins Kawhi after the Cavs loose to GSW

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

Lebron would have him fired and replaced by mike miller

Finals appearance and win following

 

[SadimirPutin]

yes he could

where is the idea that lebron is hard to coach come from?

 

[scarhead]

Coach Pop isn't Bob Knight. From what we've seen from him, it looks like he genuinely cares and is a stand up guy. He'll balance out the yelling with real support behind the scenes so yeah they'll get along fine.

 

[Illeye buckmatic]

Easily. Bron has said over and over that Pop is the goat coach.

 

[jaguar paw]

For a short amount of time yes but he'd eventually get tired of it and leave.

That would be hilarious lmao. Just to troll KD. In a few years it could just be an all star game in the western conference finals:

LeBron, Kawhi, Embiid, Harden, Westbrook for the Spurs

Vs

Durant, Curry, Klay, AD, Giannis for the Warriors

Interesting

Interesting

What bron might do is listen and win a few under that system. But he does have a huge ego and might want to see if he can be in charge on his own
