    Maybe because the Clippers are still playing and they can’t say the job is for Chauncey to take

    It’s possible that Jody really wants Becky and Neil is trying to show her other options. Maybe Neil really doesn’t want her. Who knows at this point.

    I just don’t understand the panic and the conspiracy theories. Seems like a standard process to me so far. All finalists interview(ed) this week and then they’ll make a decision in the next day or so. If we’re still without a coach next week then yeah maybe get worried, but even then they could just be waiting Billups out, if the clippers were to extend the series.

    If it’s Becky, why not just hire her? The Mavs went for Kidd. The Pacers went for Carlisle. The Celts went for Udoka. So what’s our holdup?

    Neil chose his candidate a long time ago. He wants the process to appear fair. So, he's diligently interviewing multiple candidates. In the end, he'll get who he's wanted all along.

    If it was Hammon, it would have already happened I think. It's Billups now

    All? Isn’t it like one, maybe two reports, by people that haven’t been known to be in the know about the Blazers?

    So far I’m aware of two reports. The most recent claiming to have a source. Are you saying that they’re just making it up?

    maybe. They’re pretty vague. You believe everything you read?

    Where there’s smoke there’s fire. Do you immediately dismiss everything you don’t want to believe?

    Because the Blazers organization is just one big secret what there doing. They going interview the finalists and sit down and make the decision who they think can lead this team best. So speculation by this forum is just that so relax because someone will hire in the near future. Who ever it is I will give them a chance to show what they can do just like every new player we get.

    Jody shouldn't be involved, period. PA finally learned to let the people he hired do their jobs. I have zero faith in this coaching change since the house wasnt cleaned with Olshey as well. They are going to waste Dame while watching every other team in the conference leave them in the dust.
