San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich has admitted that he is against the idea of extending the NBA season into July.
Plans have been mooted to extend the 82-game campaign to alleviate the pressure on the players during the regular season, where they can play up to 20 matches on back-to-back nights.
However, Popovich has insisted that he is not a supporter of the proposed plan as he feels that the season is long enough.
"If there is a game in July, count me out," Popovich told reporters. "Count me out. Count me out. Life is too short.
"I think the season is long enough. I will not come to work in July."
Popovich guided the Spurs to their fifth NBA championship in the 2013-14 season.
