It's always good to reward someone for being one of the worst Presidents in the NBA.

He will be 79 when this contract is up. Wow.

He's also President of Basketball Operations as well as head coach, so he could conceivably step aside as coach but stay on as president.

Even coaches in the NBA will be signing $100 million deals

This guy doesn’t need a pension plan.

 

[Neutrinos]

He'll be earning more than McDavid each season

he'll only stay on as coach for the duration of the contract if the spurs become title contenders. if not, i'm guessing he steps down after a few seasons

I’m glad coaches are starting to get paid like this. You have deep bench guys getting paid more than most good coaches. The elite ones should easily being making 10-20 a year.
