Saw on the RealGM news feed that Nate McMillan has signed a new four year deal with Atlanta to remain as their coach.
Great news for him, and well deserved. Happy for him.

Good for him. Appreciate his honesty lately that moving on from Indy caused him to reflect and focus on patience and understanding with his guys. Sounds like the move was necessary for all. Either way, he was nothing but a pro here, and I’m glad to see him be rewarded.

Happy for Nate M. He did a great job with ATL; he deserved the full-time gig.

Looks like it worked out well for everyone in our end of the coaching carousel: we got ourselves a champion coach, Nate M is officially a head coach again, and Lloyd Pierce joins us as associate head coach. :nod:

Any update on Nate B? Won't be surprised if he lands back in TOR w/ Nick Nurse's staff.

He was helping Nurse with the Canadian Olympic Team. He's expected to return to Toronto.

Very much well-deserved.
