In the aftermath of the 2004 Olympic catastrophe, most people believed that San Antonio Spurs' Gregg Popovich’s chance of coaching the USA Olympic Team was bleak at best. Then today comes the news Popovich could be among the possible candidates who might replace Coach Mike Krzyzewski as the coach of the USA Olympic Men’s Basketball team.

Team USA's Craig Miller also stated Pop was an obvious candidate for the team at the 2016 Olympics.

Mller: I think it's pretty obvious with the success he's had in the NBA and additionally, his experiences with USA basketball in the past." — Maximum Sports (@MaxSportsSA) February 26, 2013
