The Indiana Pacers are finalizing a deal to promote assistant Nate McMillan to head coach, league sources tell @TheVertical.
I mess with it
Bird complains about a new voice and hires someone on the staff, he wants to score more points and play faster yet he hires someone known for playing at a snail pace with low points.
I'm confused.
Lol Bird..
You guys should know if the jersey has any sort of cool logo in the front or isn't just straight up plain letters or isn't extra boring in general - it's fake.

Between now and this fall, Bosh and the Heat are going to have to reach a decision about what to do about his future. And there may end up being a complex and gut-wrenching disconnect between heart and mind.
There is a fear within the Heat organization that Bosh's condition will prevent him from ever being cleared to play by team doctors, several sources said. It's a result of exhaustive consultations with specialists. Something this big and delicate, the sides have gone deep attempting to understand all the options.
It's forced everyone to confront the possibility of Bosh ultimately being forced into a medical retirement.
This is an unpleasant reality the sides have wrestled with for months while trying to focus on the team. But league rules and the Heat's situation may end up causing it to come to a head as the Heat enter the summer needing to make roster plans.
Such as, do the Heat need to spend some of their $40 million in cap space on signing a center to be their starter in place of Bosh long term. A player like now-free agent Hassan Whiteside, for example.
Neither the Heat nor Bosh have announced the nature of his medical condition.
Bosh wants to return to play, this is clear. The Heat would love to have Bosh back, this is clear. Miami's position has been one of protecting Bosh, both medically and with the public as their silence has been at Bosh's direction.
But there's also this reality: The Heat have had two seasons derailed because of Bosh's medical issues. If their doctors don't think he can be cleared to play, the team has to protect itself from having the turn of events affect not only Bosh's personal health but also the health of the team.
Bosh last played Feb. 9. According to league rules, if he does not play again by Feb. 9, 2017, an independent doctor approved by the Heat and the player's union can review Bosh's case and give a recommendation to the league. If the doctor doesn't believe Bosh can continue his career, the Heat can take the 11-time All-star's contract off their books for salary cap purposes.
Bosh is owed $75 million over the next three years. He would receive all the money. Miami would receive some savings via an insurance policy, but would not do this to save money. If it was up to the Heat, a healthy Bosh would be playing for them every night.
This would allow the organization to replace Bosh when his contract hypothetically comes off in the summer of 2017.
If Bosh were to be cleared by Heat doctors and he had a recurrence of his condition, it would not only be potentially life-threatening but also reset the clock on the yearlong medical retirement process. Already, this appears like it may negatively impact three seasons and another setback could make it worse, not to mention the unthinkable issue of Bosh's health possibly being at risk.
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns has been voted the NBA's rookie of the year, according to a person with direct knowledge of the award.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the announcement has not yet been made. The NBA is scheduled to announce the winner Monday.
The No. 1 overall pick from Kentucky posted the best rookie season by a big man since Tim Duncan. He averaged 18.1 points, 10.7 rebounds and 1.7 blocks and helped the Timberwolves win 13 more games than they did the previous season. Towns played all 82 games and was named Western Conference rookie of the month in all six months the award was handed out.
Towns is the second straight Timberwolves player to win the Rookie of the Year award, after teammate Andrew Wiggins had a similarly convincing debut. Add to those two young stars a promising supporting cast including Zach LaVine, Ricky Rubio, Gorgui Dieng and Shabazz Muhammad that will be coached next season by Tom Thibodeau, and the Wolves believe they have the ingredients to finally end a 12-season playoff drought.

He didn't get along with the GM (he was an ownership hire), and didn't think Elf Payton was the long-term answer.So I wasn't around here to ask at the time.....why did Scott Skiles step down?
