Now I know why he never wanted to draft American players and wanted foreign players. I always called him the United Nations coach.

Then I guess the confederate flag is irrelevant.

It’s funny how the flag is only a piece of cloth to one group depending on agenda.

Hopefully.

And then hopefully the woke superstars like LeBron and Kyrie don't go to the Olympics next year.

It absolutely astounds me that someone of Eastern European heritage can have such a low opinion of the country that gave his ancestors a home after they fled a totalitarian hellscape


Just a total lack of gratitude

USA Basketball has to release him now. He’s allowed his opinion but he just keeps inflaming same people he represents

I’ve developed a very strong dislike for this guy over the last few years. I really don’t need this quote verified to substantiate it.

“A smart man is running the NFL and he didn’t understand the difference between the flag and what makes the country great – all the people who fought to allow Kaepernick to have the right to kneel for justice,” Popovich said of Goodell. What does a smart man like Popovich understand that Goodell and others don’t? “The flag is irrelevant. It’s just a symbol that people glom onto for political reasons, just like (Dick) Cheney back in the Iraq war.”


That’s the full quote. But I think this is from 3 years ago more I’m looking at it. I think Sensei Sean is stoking an old fire trying to pass it as a new quote. So my initial post is void, unless it’s a new interview.
