    3 months too late to save the season, but better late than never I guess

    Thanks for briefly being an upgrade over LP, Nate. You seem like a good person and I’m sure this was hard for everyone in the org that knew you personally.

    Edit: Is Bruno Fernando a coach killer??? 👀

    Wow!!!! Actually surprised by this. Really thought this would happen in the offseason, which would have been a more classy move tbh. Im glad hes gone, but the truth is nate is a great guy, so I wish him nothing but happiness and good vibes. Thanks for the ECF run, coach. KENNETH ATKINSON, QUINCY SNYDER HERE WE COME

    You know how hard I prayed that
    Nate McMillan was fired at Church on Sunday??
    Had tears running down my cheeks, the Reverend(AJ Griffin) checked on me and asked if im alright.

    I WAS HERE WHEN THIS FRANCHISE CAME BACK TO LIFE

    Welp, there it is. Good for the team but also kinda sad considering how much we adored him approximately seventeen months ago.

    I’m also surprised. Was fully expecting them to wait until the end of the season for this. Good to see Landry and Nick aren’t accepting this .500 BS

    Goodbye nate. Thanks for the eastern conference finals run, that was a true joy!

    Trae is going to be blamed and r/nba is going to go crazy saying he’s a coach killer and while Trae has issues that need fixing the Hawks had to make this move. We need someone with an offensive background. The noise is about to very loud about how toxic Trae is but that’s going to be from people that never watched McMillan coach a game. Just put our heads down and hope we hire the best person for the job this offseason.

    This is kind of weird.

    At the end of the all star break the night before a game? Not mutually parting ways or retiring, but full blown dismissal?

    I feel like we are missing some really, really juicy details.

    Looking forward to reading the Athletic article on how this went down.
