    Here we go! I love JB, and he is our future, but I think we just won 54 games with my man Blake ruunin the 1 spot. Right? With Serg gone, he will get his chance!

    How is it pointless? Nate's head is on the guillotine here and his ineptitude isn't helping him at all!

    Nate has been one of the worst Blazer coaches in the last 20 years. His players don't give a consistent effort, they routinely beat the best teams in the league and follow up with losses to the cellar dwellers. He calls bad plays during timeouts as evident by the team's poor statistical performance following a stoppage. He has had the benefit of coaching many of the most prominent talents yet rarely manages to elevate their games beyond their career averages. Blake and Pryzbilla are the only two players to have one of their best seasons under Nate. 87% of his former players have improved statistically after leaving his system.

    McMillian has a bad relationship with many of the Team USA players and was primarily hired for his image as "Sarge" to contrast the "nice fellas" Krzyzewski and D'antoni during photo opts. The USA program has been set back from his involvement and will take 6 or 7 years according to Colangelo to instill new defensive schemes that return the program to the dominant defensive force it was just a few short years ago.

    That makes two of us.

    The one line that gives it away is Nate's statistical effectiveness after timeouts. I think he's like in the top 3 all time in efficiency after a timeout, something like that.

    Well written sarcasm though.

    Ok, I'll take the bait. Even though most everyone else in here (including some the McMillian bashers) knows that this is so far from the truth its crazy but ... this can all be solved with one simple thing. A link. Link? Here Linky Linky Linky!?!?!?!?!

    Not everyone can be a favorite part of the team for you and you can even hate if you want but at least try to keep it respectable or even believable if you expect anyone to listen to anything you have to say in the future.
