Seeing Father like this is a bit like crying! I feel a lot of old waves in these days!

On April 19, Irene coach Igor Popovich’s wife, Irene, died of illness at the age of 67. Many NBA stars, including James and Adelaide, expressed their condolences. Many people understand Popovich's brilliant coaching career, but Popovich rarely mentions it on the family side. Watching Popovich's dynamics these days, he felt he was a lot older.

Popovich and his wife Irene also rarely show up in public. With regard to the starting point of their feelings, many media only speculate that they started around 1973. After marriage, Popovich's wife, Irene, became a full-time wife who was a husband and a wife. Of course, interesting people are always with interesting people. Eileen is a very interesting person, and Popovich is also a very humorous guy.

Although she is a full-time wife, Eileen has also been with Popovich for 42 years. In life, she is a partner of Pope. In basketball, she can even be said to be a noble man of Popovich. Twenty-four years ago, Popovich was able to enter the Spurs coaching team and became the team's coach two years later. Eileen also played a role. In the 1990s, the Spurs replaced their boss and a consortium bought the team. At the time, the chairman of the consortium was Robert McDermott. The daughter of McDermott and Pope's wife, Irene, are good college students. From Irene, the consortium chairman learned about Popovich's coaching ability.

It is no coincidence that Popovich’s military experience made him humorous and tough, and that the consortium’s boss was also retired from the US military as a general, so his wife’s good-natured father took a look at Popovich. The resume of the soldier eventually became the head coach of the Spurs. Popovich’s current salary is the highest of all NBA coaches at 11 million US dollars, and all this is due to his wife’s silent support for him.

Popovich's wife, Irene, is a very loving person. Although she is a housewife, Eileen has always forgotten the local public welfare and is highly regarded in San Antonio. The companions who have been accompanied by 42 years now have had a great fight against Popovich. In this difficult time, we hope that Popovich will be able to spend more time with his family and fulfill his duties as a good husband.
