    Not that it should be a surprise after the past few weeks of speculation, but it seems official now.

    *Blazers GM Kevin Pritchard fired!*

    Trail Blazers gm has been fired by owner Paul Allen, less than an hour before the 2010 NBA draft was set to begin!

    Would/could this change the Blazers' draft plan since Pritchard isn't at the helm tonight? Or is Allen going to just go ahead with whatever plan Pritchard had set out already?

    Morey's attempt to get Rudy Fernandez now.

    Aldridge is also the type of PF that would work well in this offense. ;)

    They probably dont want Pritchard to screw over the franchise in a scorched earth scenario.

    pritchard will end up with the nets gm and that would be scary with the money he would be able to use :eek:

    Cold. But then, why would they still let Pritchard excute the draft for the Blazers? Too much opportunity for pay back.

    Paul Allen is a douche. Good luck getting another guy who is as good as KP any time soon.

    I predict that KP will get his next GM job before Paul Allen finds that team a new GM.

    Bizarre timing, but hey, whatever. We all saw this coming.

    Pritchard will have no trouble finding a new job.

    Is this what they mean when they say "Pritch-slapped"? :)

    Pritchard had a good draft too. He ripped off Minny by giving them Martell Webster for Gomes and Babbitt.
