Wow, **** reference not real cool, and I wonder do you ever offer anything that doesn't directly bash a coaching staff that has led this team from 21 victories 4 years ago, to now?

Just wondering, becuase Nates pretty cool in my book....
 
At this point it's better than starting Batum - we cannot give up the 3-spot as a threat to score. It's killing us in this series.
 
Yes, the intelligence of the original poster is so glaring, I think Paul Allen should hire him/her/it to replace both Nate and KP.

Well let me see. Batum is averaging like a rebound and steal per game and almost 0 points. So who is the idiot now?
 
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that's about all i got out of the OP.

Outlaw is killing us as well this series.....
 
Where did you read, or hear this?


Dumb move by the way if it happens.
 
Dammit.. this kid is on my ignore list.. but I see he post when you guys quote him in your responses.

:sigh:
 
McCluess isnt even a clever nickname for McMillan, you have to try harder than that.

i dont know why all the Nate hate here, sure he could do a few things differently but all this venom is similar to his first and second seasons where everyone said he had to go. the first year or two in the playoffs is going to be similar.

he's one of the more respected coaches in the league not by accident.
 
lol, Starting Rudy or Outlaw is okay in my book, but If we dont start Rudy, I want Sergio and Rudy in together at least for a little bit to get the tempo up.
 
well, McMillan is facing a real problem. If he moves Rudy into the starting lineup, he has no backup for Roy. Right now, we're basically playing without a backup point guard, without a backup small forward, and without a backup power forward. Frye, Batum, and Sergio aren't getting minutes at all.
 
Batum looks like wants to go home, he hasn't done much this whole series. He's been Le Fantome, "The Ghost". I like him, but Nate would be correct in thinking about getting him out of the lineup.

He just looks completely intimidated out there.
 
For Portland to win this series they need both Rudy and Outlaw to play well. If starting Travis improves his play, then I am all for it. Rudy is already playing well, so no changes need to be made to get him going. He just needs to be on the floor more.
 
how about we ACTUALLY RUN more? maybe we score more points that trying to slow it down....yeah lets be oscer dela hoya and go punch for punch with primetime lennox lewis? good idea? no? shocking really.

riiiiiiiiiiight.. "Change what has been successful for you all year"
 
Question: at what point do we decide McMillan isn't the coach that will take us all the way? One first round exit? Two first round exits? Three? Four?

Right after our next championship parade? :ghoti:

Seriously, I think a +13 win improvement over last year has earned him one more year. If we pull a NO in the first round next year, then we start looking.

I'm serious. How many years is a reasonable timeline for McMillan to have success? If this team wins 60 games next year, but loses in the first round, what happens?

Well, I'm not necessarily saying we should fire him. He has, what, one more year left on his contract? If we don't see marked improvement next season in certain areas, I would think that Pritchard should really start to reconsider the the future of this team at the head coach position.

I'm not completely in disagreement with some of the posters on this board who feel that this team is more a product of its overall talent, and less about McMillan's coaching.
 
You all CAN'T be serious...we've only gotten better each year with Sarge. We WAAAAY overachieved this year. Honestly, who expected us to have the 2nd best record in the West this year? Thats what I thought. At the start of the year, most everyone thought that getting the 6 spot was too high. We're only going to get better. We'll win tonight, and given the recent trend in Houston, we'll have a legit shot to pull out a W. Would anyone be willing to pick against us in the RG for game 7? I don't think so. I trust Nate, and I think we'll pull out this series. Book it.

Well I've already decided that he IS the coach that will take us all the way.

We lost games 3 & 4 not because of our coach, not because of officiating, but because the players on the floor failed to execute down the stretch. Call it our youth, call it choking, but that's what happened, and I'm not going to blame Nate for it. He's a great coach.
 
First off, this thread is making a claim from an author who has no credibility, and he hasn't provided a link or source that he isn't just making this up.

Second, Nate might leave on his own after his contract is up, just like he did in Seattle. Then all the Nate bashers can rejoice. I'm sure there is another olympic caliber coach that will be jobless and wanting to come to Portland, right?
