Breaking News: Portland Trail Blazers Have Fired Nate McMillan

The bloodletting in Portland has reached a fever pitch – no one is escaping the house-cleaning, not even the coach.

At the head of the Blazers reboot, news is out that Portland has officially fired Nate McMillan.

Nate has been the coach since the 2005-06 season, and has done a decent job. This season has been derailed by injuries and the inexplicable nose-dive in the play of Raymond Felton, but management is clearly looking for a clean slate. Assistant coach Kaleb Canales has been promoted to interim head coach.

Who should be the next coach of the Trail Blazers?
