Wheeler is employed by the Blazers, and Kenny Vance is desperate to be relevant again. Unless they know something they won't tell, put them on the Yes Man list.
Says Williams is a lot like Bayless in that he attacks the rim. Not much more. Williams is trade bait.
I'm going to change my opinion of Steve Patterson. Looking back, he was put in a no-win situation. I think he did what he could.
Buchanan and Bourne have feel really weird today! The man that brought them in, is now gone! I just assumed that if they canned KP, they would walk with him.
I read that Paul Allen was listening to 95.5 and heard them talking about the firing of Pritchard at 4:30. He then ordered them to stop. Saw it on oregonlive.
There are only 30 GM jobs in the NBA. A person who has a chance to get one should jump at the opportunity except in extraordinary circumstances. If Pritchard had KNOWN he was going to get screwed over, then he'd still be better off taking the job than waiting for another chance. Similarly, Buchanan and Borne should jump at the chance if given a shot at the GM spot for the Blazers. Maybe they will succeed spectacularly here, or maybe they will do a good job and get fired like Pritchard. Either way, they're better off in the long run than waiting for another opportunity that may never come. Ed O.
That's an opinion, for sure. Born and Buchanon are scouts with a passion for the game, not lawyers who sell their wares to the highest bidder.
