Ever wondered what it’s like going to battle with another NBA head coach?
I went to Memphis to watch Taylor Jenkins and the legendary Gregg Popovich duel, scheme and outwork each other.
It was awesome.

Gregg Popovich: “No different team with him. He’s amazing.”
No need to clarify who that is. – 6:34 PM
