    PORTLAND, Ore. (AP)—Portland Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan ruptured his right Achilles tendon during practice Friday and will need surgery.

    McMillan will coach Saturday night’s game against Houston, but he will miss next week’s four-game road trip.

    The Blazers say McMillan will have surgery on Monday.

    Assistant coach Dean Demopoulos will take McMillan’s place starting Monday in New York.

    man that has to hurt. get well soon. now if we go on a four game winning streak i guess it's time to think about the coaching of mcmillan. but hey he must hustle when he is coaching at practice too.

    So sorry coach!  My husband ruptured his about 5 years ago, but he was up at Timberline skiing again 6 months to the day.  Best of luck to you.

    Hope everything heals good coach. Perhaps in the future, you shouldn't go for the windmill dunk right outta' the gate?

    Something getting swept under the rug is the fact how well Monty Williams has performed as "acting coach" while Nate has to take a seat on the bench. I really hope we can retain Coach Monty for at least one more year, but I fear he'll be a hot commodity this offseason.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    Ridnour doesn''t have a lot of offensive game, but he''s irritating as hell as an opponent and that''s what you want. He can run plays and stuff so he would be nice.

    Thanks Siccolo, not to knock on Bosh. I think if he was the number one option he would go back to being a beast. I miss making jokes about him playing for the RAPTORS. He is a great player.

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
