San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich was so excited to see a former player, he surprised him by putting him in a headlock.
Except, instead of Jonathon Simmons, Popovich grabbed his fellow Orlando Magic swingman Terrence Ross.
Ross noted after the 114-87 victory that when the Spurs coach realized he had the wrong guy, he tightened his grip.
Classic Pop.
