    Re: 2pm KP and Larry Miller Press Conference

    Here is my take.

    Paul Allen didn't like Tom Penn. So he fired him. Tom caused some tension between KP and Paul. KP was bummed like all of us when our friends get fired. Then we get over it. KP's agent is a prick. (KP would be wise to fire him) KP said he has never asked for an extension. Not once. Paul has no desire to rush into any extension. Why should he?

    Good synopsis. But why was Penn fired in the first place? Not liking him isn't not a defensible reason.

    you guys think I'm kidding. F Vulcan. Tell them to stay the F up in Seattle and enjoy their no NBA city. If this team gets torn apart cause BS turmoil in the Office... man I'm riled up now lol.

    Dwight Jaynes brings up a great point. It's not just Vulcan. It's KP's agent. It's other teams in the NBA that have bound together to bring KP down.

    Oregon's an At-Will state; it's perfectly reasonable to fire anyone for no reason.

    Re: 2pm KP and Larry Miller Press Conference

    I don't think that's going to happen ... whatever happens to KP, I see this as more of a tempest in a teapot than anything.

    If he gets the axe I half-way expect Mark Warkentien to come here (there have been rumors) and if he doesn't get the axe then he'll proceed with his job; it's not like the players are on the block because there's a spat between management and ownership.

    Re: 2pm KP and Larry Miller Press Conference

    No, this is a much deeper problem than PA not liking Penn. Clearly the business side of the organization do not like Pritchard. I think the rift started during the B-Roy negotiations and has only gotten worse. Canzano was right, the Penn firing was a shot across the bow. KP is gone. I can't fucking believe this.

    Re: 2pm KP and Larry Miller Press Conference

    I know but I mean more along the lines.. where someone comes in with a completely different viewpoint on how this team should be built. and then pretty much strip the roster.

    :smiley-whistle:

    Maybe parts of this roster need to be "stripped"?
