    Hey now, be like Stotts and don't get defensive.

    How would someone get to the level that McGowan is at and not throw that trump card right back in Olshey's face and ask him, "Then why in the fuck did YOU keep the guy for NINE fucking years?"

    Spoelstra could come back to Rip City - who wants to deal with Butler?

    He's not a basketball guy, and Olshey is a smooth salesman.

    The Nuggets rattled off 11 straight points late in the fourth period to put the game away. The Blazers were outscored 28-14 in the fourth quarter. Asked about the final-quarter meltdown, Stotts played it down.

    “I kind of tend to stay away from the word meltdown,” Stotts said. “Sounds a little over the top. But we didn't make some shots. They made some big plays.”
    ——-

    Holy fuck the firing can’t come soon enough.

    What does “keeping the team in Portland” even mean? What does that have to do with anything? We have a great arena and massive fan support. Fuck the people running franchise like Olshey and Stotts sure, but leave that other stuff alone.

    Literally every answer was in that same cliche ridden mess. It was a meltdown. There's not even a doubt it was a meltdown. You go into the 4th quarter of a must win game and you put up FOURTEEN points?! 7 points every 6 fucking minutes? You don't call a God damn timeout during the run?!

    I just do not fucking get it. And Thank God this was last game coaching.

    Damn, I hope he's more of a basketball guy and slicker than I am.

    What kind of juice have you been smoking? Neil hired and stuck by TS. Terry can't be scapegoated without it directly reflecting on Olshey's lack of judgement.

    Goodbye Neil! Easy and done... maybe One Life to Live has an opening?

    If they are going to make changes, it should be immediately, which means after the playoffs are over for this front office

    All of you people hoping Stotts will leave seem to think there's a better coach waiting in the wings. "Anyone's better than Stotts!!!!" Yeah. We'll see.

    Got me all excited - I thought Jason Quick had been fired again.
