whoa crazy I am shocked
My King. My Prophet. My guiding light.
This is the most shocking news I’ve ever heard.
No way? Keeping a top 3 coach in the nba ,(don’t mind me, I’m salty, we have Jason Kidd)
The Godfather made him an offer he couldn’t refuse: a long-term contract
Thanks, I hate it
What’s up with all these unproven coaches signing long term deals?
Well deserved.
I really could see Spo following in Pop’s footsteps, remaining with the same organization forever.
Damn and here I thought he’d go coach the Titans. I am shocked.
He should be the highest paid coach in the league.
Pay him whatever he wants and never ever let him leave. The coaching carousel is a scary place
Spoelstra is only 53. He could do this for another 20 years at least if he wants
Never having to worry about our coaching situation is truly a blessing
Let’s go that’s my coach #HeatCulture
Bring out the Brinks truck for Spo. Best coach in the league man.
Worth every penny

Bring the big money to the Spo Goat
He’s going to be the new greg pop. Old as hell and still coaching.
He waited until after the divorce.
Now when will he win coach of the year? Long overdue.
He’s the best coach in NBA history.
[From Ira Winderman: Spoelstra contract is more than five years, at over $10 million per season.](https://twitter.com/iraheatbeat/status/1744897091972022375?s=46&t=W-TpwhYMfrVvaY3Qk_BDfg)
Edit: [From Woj: ESPN Sources: Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra’s contract extension includes the most committed coaching money in history: eight-years, $120-plus million.](https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1744904438119055376?s=46&t=W-TpwhYMfrVvaY3Qk_BDfg)
Heat sources: by the end of this contract Spoelstra will be 43.
Best coach in the league. Dude really gets the most out of his players
You know he’s a real one cuz he ditched a hot wife for this gig
That’s my Spoach!
Should be the Olympic coach, and not that bum Kerr
Risky signing. Not clear if this guy can coach. Should have hired me instead
Supposedly an 8 year extension too, love this. I was low key worried some team will swoop in and throw insane money at him. It would’ve been devastating if he had left, he should be the highest paid in the league
SPO knows , Top 5 all time.
I love you Spoelstra Nostra! Check out r/rarespos for some fun!
8 years @ $15M
Spo is my rock. My strength when I am weak.
considering how many mediocre coaches are in the league and are just being reused, i’d definitely throw the keys to spo lol.
Congratulations well deserved.
All thanks to Alonzo calling out the video coordinator needing to do better in 1995
200 mil/10 years
Damn I thought he’d be coaching the Commanders!!!!! The
😀
Guess the Heat are content with being perennial runners up
He deserves it
Spo for me, equals a max player no questions about it. I see these other teams with other coaches and I just feel sorry for them knowing they’ll never know what it’s like of having a true master at the helm
It’s crazy to think that he’s only making $2M more than Monty Williams.
Guess its too late to trade Monty for Spo.
Kuya Spo 🇵🇭
Why extend a guy who never won COTY ^^^^^/s
Dang, would have loved to have him replace Kerr
