I'm not at all surprised. I wonder who will want to take on that job? I bet there won't be many volunteers!

He's had it bad in Portland as soon as he got there. He was stuck with some bad seeds who were very talented. They were traded away, became bad and he still has the one guy in Darius Miles that gives him problems.



Mo, come back to Philly, doggy. Obie sucks, you should replace him!

I feel real bad for Mo Cheeks. He was in a situation that most coaches wouldn't even want to be a part of. I hope this doesn't affect Mo's job opportunities because I think he's a pretty good head coach.

This just goes to show how much this league is run by the players rather than by the coaches/GMs.

Cheeks is a class act. I remember when he stepped in to help that girl sing the National Anthem when she forget the words.

The Blazers don't deserve a Coach like Cheeks.

Ownership promised the fans they would clean up the team and make the fans proud to cheer for them. So far it looks like a broken promise to me. I know Miles had a run in with Cheeks this season, and then there was the Woods disaster.

I'm not sure if it was smart to lock up Randolph. And Damon "I wrap my hippe lettuce in tin foil while I go through the airport" Stoudamire is still on the team.

Re: Maurice Cheeks Fired

That is just ridiculous. They should have gotten rid of miles instead. Yeah, that organization is really committed to changing their image by firing the good guy, the one guy with class. He is actually probably happy to not have to worry about the jailblazers anymore.

Cheeks isn't the problem with Portland. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure that out.
