Kerr, Curry endorse Popovich for president
Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry have both spoken out against President Donald Trump and his policies, and agree on who would be a better fit to run the United States.
That person is none other than San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich.
"I truly would vote for Pop. He would make a great president," Kerr said Wednesday of the bench boss with a military background, according to ESPN.com.
"All jokes aside. I would vote for him."

The Golden State Warriors coach, who played four seasons and won two championships with the Spurs under Popovich, elaborated on why the 68-year-old would make a good POTUS.
"Honesty and integrity," Kerr said. "Those would be two really key components for any person that wants to become president. Honesty and integrity would be fantastic to see. He would provide that."
Curry agreed, saying Pop is "great for the NBA and would be even better for the country, probably."
Trump withdrew the defending champs' invitation to visit the White House this year in response to Curry's reluctance to go. Like the Dubs duo, Popovich has been openly critical of Trump, most recently calling him a "soulless coward."
