    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Marc Iavaroni will become the next Trail Blazers coach, The Oregonian has learned, after the team offered the Phoenix Suns assistant the position late Thursday.

    Iavaroni, 48, will accept the job as early as today, a source close to the talks said, exactly one week after he was interviewed for the first time at the Chicago pre-draft camp.

    Blazers general manager John Nash insisted late Thursday that the job has not been offered to anybody. Earlier Thursday, owner Paul Allen said the team possibly would wait until after the June 28 draft -- where the Blazers have the third pick of the first round -- to hire a coach. </div>

    Who knows, maybe this signing can be the first move to get Portland out of the hole they`re in.
