Finally.
Talk about the least surprising development.

I've been saying this for years, but I do not believe Trae is a true franchise type alpha player. He's got a lot of skills, but he's also a chucker and alpha grade pilon on defense. The team is lacking high end talent as well.

He's a decent coach, to bad he didn't get along with the star player.

Their problem isn't the coach.

No. We not in same timeline of our development curve...

Nurse gets rest of season before any real pressure on him. But it a valid conversation point.

McMillan has been on the block for a bit. I think Nurse gets next year at a minimum.

This isn't comparable. Their best player was dipping out of practices.

This would normally a time where you could see a free fall for a team, but from what Woj is saying they are doing the hunt now for a head coach rather than wait out the offseason. A guy like Quin Snyder could help the Hawks a lot.

The roster has talent, but I think McMillan and Trae butted heads too much.

I’ll wait a little before making any proclamations but iirc there are rumours suggesting trae is a bit of a coach killer.

Trae is the new coach killer.

Sucks but not surprising. Team has severely underperformed under McMillan

Maybe. Or maybe they just overperformed that year that they switched coaches to McMillan and went on that second half run that took them to the Conference Finals. That really seems to be the outlier here. It seems like they should be better, but maybe Trae is just a hard guy to build around.

Ima be pissed if they get Quinn Snyder. I really want him to coach the Raptors.

Has he ever been out of the 1st round? lol.

Not sure hiring a guy that consistently underachieved and whose team had terrible chemistry is a good idea.

Bring him here as an assistant. You got bills to pay Nate!
