Gregg Popovich has said that he expects to stay with the San Antonio Spurs along with veteran players Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili next season.
The defending NBA champions were eliminated from the playoffs in a closely-fought first-round series with the Los Angeles Clippers.
The 66-year-old coach told reporters: "People ask me about Tim and Manu and myself for the last five years, what we're going to do. It's all psycho babble. I have no clue. We'll probably come back. Paycheck is pretty good. You think I'm lying."
Duncan and Ginobili will turn 40 and 39 respectively during the 2015-16 season.
