yesrepjerseys: Snubs forgotten, Popovich settles in with Team USA

LAS VEGAS — Before Gregg Popovich's U.S. Olympic experience was so rudely interrupted...

Actually, there have been two such interruptions in Popovich's basketball career. You can take your pick as to which stung worse.

Was it the one back in 1972, when a 23-year-old Air Force Academy graduate with international experience as a player, an ability to speak Russian and a tirelessly aggressive, defense-first game was left off the U.S. squad in the cutdown from 66 at the Olympic trials? Many who participated in or saw those trials believed Popovich had earned a roster spot (he had the best shooting percentage, .577) and a number of them never quite forgave Bobby Knight, who assisted Hank Iba by coaching one of the trials squads and broke the news to a disbelieving Popovich. That team is famous for the controversial, three-bites-at-the-apple finish the Soviet Union got to claim the gold, with U.S. players unanimously refusing to accept their silver medals.
