Re: KP FIRED! (merged) He didn't make the trade to save his job. I think he was treated horribly, but I also think he kinda screwed himself with the rest of the league with that threatening letter about Darius Miles.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) How much did PA pay that Libby character to cancel that rally. PA knew what he was going to do today, right before the draft.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) Or it could've been that KP has known for awhile that today was his last day. But he and his reps decided to wait for the right moment to stick it to Paul Allen, so they let it leak just before the draft and now everyone hates Paul Allen even more by making us believe that he told him just before the draft.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) I bet Seattle wouldn't boo him. Just sayin.....Alienate fans....what better way than to be an absolute dick to the most popular person in the franchise
Re: KP FIRED!!! I was looking forward to the draft. Now, it's going to be just another boring draft. Nobody's going to put their job on the line by risking making a move that "might not work". Larry Miller is a spineless piece of shit for not resigning immediately. If he had any balls, and if he was actually competent as an administrator, he'd feel confident he could get another job elsewhere. But since he hasn't any balls, and he isn't competent as an administrator, he's going to hang onto the Paul Allen gravy train, and screw the fans of Portland, allowing Paul Allen do whatever screwed up job he wants without any adverse comments from his President of Basketball Operations. You don't need luck Kevin wherever you end up. Where you go, winning will follow.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) Two things. First, no trade was going to save his job. This firing was personal. Second, Larry Miller wrote and sent that letter.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) I believe the Oregonian reported it as well as the tribune, so that's kinda iffy. But KP only said that it was an organization decision.
