不仅仅因为他是NBA历史胜场最多的主教练。也不仅仅因为他在圣安东尼奥建立起了一种随着新生代球员融入而不断发扬光大的球队文化。更不仅在于他本人的品格内核。这一切的综合,甚至更多,才铸就了现在的他。
我们常常需要提醒自己,格雷格·波波维奇 (Gregg Popovich) 究竟是一位多么非凡的人物。他曾是一位多么不可思议的主帅,在长达近三十年的漫长时间里,他又维持了怎样一段极具统治力的执教生涯。
而这些提醒并不只是为了我们这些有幸亲眼见证过那段伟大岁月的球迷。这也是为了那些刚刚开始了解马刺的年轻球迷,让他们明白在维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama)、凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson)、德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell)、斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle)、迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 以及卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 被选中之前,是什么让这支球队如此与众不同。
比如这样的成就:
格雷格·波波维奇赢得的季后赛胜场数超过了以下球队的队史总和:
鹈鹕
黄蜂
灰熊
森林狼
猛龙
魔术
快船
篮网
国王
奇才
掘金
开拓者
爵士
步行者
骑士
雄鹿
太阳
热火哦对了,还有独行侠和火箭。pic.twitter.com/6HFj2FpQiS

在他辉煌的职业生涯中,波波维奇作为圣安东尼奥马刺队主教练共赢下了170场季后赛。这个数字超过了20支NBA球队各自的队史季后赛胜场总和。也就是说,在另外29支未曾由波波维奇执教的球队中,有整整20支球队建队至今赢下的NBA季后赛场次都没有他一个人多。
只有湖人、凯尔特人、76人、老鹰、勇士、公牛、活塞、尼克斯和雷霆的胜场数超过了他。但那还要考虑到这些球队悠久的建队历史。湖人、凯尔特人、76人、老鹰、勇士和尼克斯早在1946年就已开始征战。活塞自1957年起落户底特律。公牛于1966年加入联盟,超音速则是在1967年。
如果我们将时间线划定在波波维奇亲自出任主教练的同一年(1996-1997赛季),那么他显然击溃了NBA派出的所有对手。
• 湖人(他最强劲的对手)赢下了169场,
• 凯尔特人赢下了160场,
• 老鹰赢下了57场,
• 勇士赢下了118场,
• 76人赢下了79场,
• 公牛赢下了70场,
• 活塞赢下了89场,
• 尼克斯赢下了80场,
• 雷霆/超音速合计赢下了104场(包括雷霆时期的90场,以及超音速从1997年到搬迁至俄克拉荷马城期间赢下的14场)。
从1997年到2025年,没有任何一支球队的季后赛胜场数超过马刺。考虑到马刺在1997年以及2019年之后都没能打进季后赛,这位功勋老帅(El Jefe)的数据显得更加夺目而震撼。
要彰显波波维奇的伟大,有太多种方式。这仅仅是其中之一。但有一点必须指明:马刺正处在崭新时代的黎明。在自疫情以来首次重返季后赛的征程中,马刺便一路杀入了总决赛。
是时候昂首挺胸,准备为这精彩的一年加油呐喊了。基石早在多年前便已奠定——彼时,一位来自波莫纳-皮策学院的教练吸引了拉里·布朗 (Larry Brown) 的目光。在那个时刻无人能知,这段结缘竟彻底改变了圣安东尼奥马刺队乃至整个NBA的历史轨迹。

Open Thread: Gregg Popovich won more playoff games than two-thirds of his rivals

It’s not that he’s the winningest coach in NBA history. It’s not how he created a culture in San Antonio that continues to grow as the next generation of enter the fold. It’s not who he is at his core. It’s all of that and then some.
From time to time, we have to remind ourselves just how remarkable a man Gregg Popovich is. How amazing a coach he was. And how dominating a career he maintained for the better part of three decades.
And these reminders aren’t simply for those of us fortunate enough to witness the greatness in real time. This is for the younger fans who are just now learning about the Spurs, understanding what made the team special before Victor Wembanyama, Keldon Johnson, Devin Vassell, Stephon Castle, Dylan Harper, and Carter Bryant were drafted.
Things like this:
Gregg Popovich has won more playoff games than the:
Pelicans
Hornets
Grizzlies
Timberwolves
Raptors
Magic
Clippers
Nets
Kings
Wizards
Nuggets
Trail Blazers
Jazz
Pacers
Cavaliers
Bucks
Suns
HeatOh yeah, and the Mavs & Rockets. pic.twitter.com/6HFj2FpQiS

Over his illustrious career, Pop won 170 playoff games as head coach of the San Antonio Spurs. More than the grand total for 20 NBA franchises. That is twenty teams (out of the twenty-nine that didn’t have Gregg Popovich as head coach) that as a franchise have not won more NBA playoff games than he did.
Only the Lakers, Celtics, 76ers, Hawks, Warriors, Bulls, Pistons, Knicks, and Thunder have won more. But that takes into account their franchise history. The Lakers, Celtics, 76ers, Hawks, Warriors, and Knicks starting competing in 1946. The Pistons have been in Detroit since 1957. The Bulls joined in 1966, and the SuperSonics in 1967.
If we limit the timeline to the same year that Gregg Popovich anointed himself head coach (the 1996-1997 season), then he has clearly bested each and every team the NBA threw at him.
• The Lakers (his closest rival) have won 169,
•The Celtics have won 160,
•The Hawks have won 57,
•The Warriors have won 118,
•The 76ers have won 79,
•The Bulls have won 70,
•The Pistons have won 89,
•The Knicks have won 80,
•The Thunder/SuperSonics combined have won 104 (90 as the Thunder and 14 the SuperSonics won from 1997 until the move to OKC).
From 1997 to 2025, no one won more playoff games than the Spurs. And considering the Spurs did not make the playoffs in 1997 or after 2019, El Jefe’s numbers pop (see what I did there) even more.
There are so many ways to point out Popovich’s greatness. This is just one. But it is important to note. The Spurs are at the dawn of a new era. In their first trip into the postseason since the pandemic, the Spurs made it to the Finals.
It’s time to lift your heads up and prepare to root for a great year. The foundation was laid years ago when a coach from Pamona-Pitzer caught the eye of Larry Brown. At the time no one knew, but that relationship changed the trajectory of the San Antonio Spurs and the NBA.
