The Portland Trail Blazers and Terry Stotts are nearing agreement on a contract extension.
The Blazers hold an option on the third and final season of Stotts' contract for 14-15, but that will likely be torn up with a new deal.
Stotts helped transform the Blazers with a 21-game regular-season improvement (54-28) and a seven-game first-round playoff series victory over the Houston Rockets.
Stotts was an assistant coach on the Dallas Mavericks' 2011 championship team.

Why not give him an extension, he's a great coach.

This is a great move, now to improve/develop the incredibly weak bench they got.

Will he get more than the $25M/5 year that Kerr got?

Well he's got a hell of a lot more experience. Doesn't seniority get rewarded? We'll see lol

It was a best of 7 series which is what it was referring to.

Rather odd though, I can't remember watching a best of 5 this year.

The NBA hasn't had a Best-of-5 series in the 1st round sine 2002.

Stotts coached the team really well in the 82 game season, though I think he could have done better in the 7 game series versus the Spurs. But at least it was a 7 game series and not just a 5 game series.
