Merged: 2pm KP and Larry Miller Press Conference

Re: 2pm KP and Larry Miller Press Conference

If Tod Leiweke fucks the Blazers up I don't think I can follow the team anymore. Pritchard has been the guy that turned this thing around that Paul Allen's boys fucked up in the first place. Pritchard brought the blazers back and turned them into the good guys of the city again. He gets it and I think that makes the fans support the team even more.

I also don't think I could follow the Seahawks anymore either, as Tod Leiweke is already running them right now. Pretty much I just hate Tod Leiweke, and a ton of Seahawk fans wanted him gone after he basically told Mike Holmgren he didn't want him back. Why would he tell Holmgren, the only coach to take the Seahawks to a SB and five straight playoff appearances to go away? Because Holmgren is a guy, much like Pritchard, that wants to call the shots on his team and have the power to do so. The Vulcans clearly don't like guys like that.

Is Todd Leiweike related to Tom Leiweke from AEG?

TROLL

 

The Larry Miller transcript... says all but goodbye to kpee

http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindblazersbeat/2010/03/trail_blazers_transcript_of_la.html

it takes reading between the lines to a new level. infact a 1st grader could figure out how this ends. so who replaces kpee? shit im gonna miss typing that.

 

I dont see it man....

 

Unless there is some sort of miraculous reconciliation I don't see any chance of KP being here next year.

 

Really??? Why???

And please dont just say "cause"

 

KP has been great for this team. If the Vulcans fire him it will be absolutely moronic.
If anything, they should fire Larry Miller and tell him to take McMillan with him back to Seattle.

I hope someone steps forward and has KP's back. He needs support for the great job he's done thus far in only a few short years.

 

Somtimes 'cause is enough of an answer ... this feels like one of those instances

 

cause .... if you have watched sports you can tell when a franchise is parting ways. the way miller spoke says it all. im telling you... kp will be gone by summer if he doesnt resign himself.

not to mention... when this kind of stuff gets lose to the press.. its over. its over.

 

MIXUM, you're frequently wrong and always a cynic of mammoth proportions, but I think you got it right this time.

 

1. Vulcan / Paul Allen have been media silent throughout. If they wanted him or at least didn't have a serious grudge, they would and could step in to put out this fire.

2. Did you see KP??? When asked whether he expected to be here next year...said "I don't know" but the body language was SCREAMING "I doubt it".

3. An agent talks for their client and KP hasn't distanced himself from his. For KP to go public through his agent talking about the TP firing being a Vulcan "drive-by" says something really ugly has gone on behind the scenes.

4. If the relationship between the parties is that bad, there's no way an owner with control like Allen doesn't replace him.

 

I just dont see any logic in that kind of decision, and i really dont think PA is that stupid, it would regress the franchise back to 2003 in terms of its relations with the fans

 

When it becomes personal (which it sounds like this mess has) there's no accounting for 'logic' ... and really the only way this hurts fan relations is if the team's on-court product suffers.

 

osu.... kevin is gone. start accepting now.

 

By not stupid you mean would never give Darius Miles a huge contract stupid?

(sorry that's the low hanging fruit)
