Nothing to do with coaching but I was probably most into the NBA in that 2005-2012 range and I remember tracking Splitter in the Euroleagues when everyone was wondering when he would join the Spurs. If I'm remembering correctly, people had really high expectations for him and thought of him as a potential superstar. His career didn't hit anywhere near those expectations but solid career. Kind of crazy he's our coach now, time moves way too fast.
