Gregg Popovich Was Forced To Sub Brook Lopez In During Garbage Time Because Fans Were Going NUTS And No One Has Any Idea Why

So Team USA wrapped up its exhibition schedule today playing Canada over in Sydney. Sure, all normal. US won, fans showed up, all things we’re used to seeing when it comes to Team USA. However, this is something we’re not used to seeing.

Gregg Popovich was forced to sub in Brook Lopez in garbage time.

No one has any idea either. Nobody knows why Brook Lopez is a fan favorite besides the fact he’s a bit of a weirdo and lunatic. I guess that plays in Australia? I’m assuming it does, that’s the only reason. Maybe it’s the fact that he turned into such a knockdown shooter his nickname became Splash Mountain?

The real story here though is Pop giving into the crowd. Who does he think he is being all funny and jovial? I need Pop to not give the crowd what they want. I need him to play his starters and continue to kick Canada’s ass. Although, this is classic Pop

I need someone from Australia to chime in here. Why the hell do y’all love Brook Lopez so damn much?
