Pope on the 98 Pacers team that took Jordan and the Bulls to 7 games in the East Finals

That's so far beyond awesome. I hope he wins multiple titles but regardless, Mitch hired one of the few guys in all of history that BBN can outright love the most and the easiest. ❤️❤️❤️
 
Those were fun years for me. Grew up close to Indy. My family are big pacers fans. My sister is on the executive team for them. My cousin also works for the organization. It’s getting fun again. I’m an IU fan who really likes Pope. Respectfully
 
Pope never fails to say the right thing. How refreshing is that given the last coach seemingly loved to say things to get under the skin of the fans and the administration?

He says the right things. He does the right things. Let's just hope he wins the right games.
 
I’m starting to get to the point where I’m not sure if I want Pope as my coach. I kind of think we might need him to be the President.
Nah. Not dumb or crazy enough. Totally unqualified.

May be a generational coach here though. I’m good with that!!!
