    :dunno: McGowan falls on his sword and takes the blame for any toxicity in the workplace? At this point nothing about this franchise, no matter how twisted, would surprise me.

    I don't believe Olshey reported to McGowen. My understanding is Olshey was in charge of all basketball ops wihle McGowen was in charge of everything with the business. They both report to Vulcan/Allens

    I have a feeling you're going to be very disappointed about how little actually changes. It might very well be that we've seen all the change that will happen.

    It is. But it was just relayed to me that it’s unrelated and he got another job. Who knows

    I don't know Mcgowan, might be a great guy, but I've never forgiven him for changing the Rose Garden to the Moda Center and for getting rid of Mike and Mike.
