Nate McMillan To 'Move Past' Report Of Potential Mid-Season Retirement 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Dec 31, 2022 6:52 am

Nate McMillan denied a report from The Athletic that he has considered stepping away as the head coach of the Atlanta Hawks


"I read that article briefly. I've never spoke to that reporter before. I think the last two weeks he's written a couple of articles with some sources in our organization that are making some comments about me and some things that I'm saying and doing," said McMillan on Friday.


McMillan added that he'll coach out the rest of this year, then re-assess his situation during the offseason. 


McMillan added that retirement is potentially in the picture. 


"Look, at the end of the year, I'll do as I've always done. I'll talk with my family and see if that flame, that fire, to continue next season, but that's the end of the season.


"All of us think about retiring, but that's at the end of the season. We're going to move past that, that story."

Good denial of the report, so prove it wrong.

Really? I read it as Nate saying there are sources within the Hawks reporting things he’s said internally though not completely accurately this story but that he was going to move passed it. He didn’t say those other stories were wrong. He knows some people in the Hawks are trying to force him out.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….
