    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.

    Wow some serious high hopes for JJ there. 

    @Cailin Isn''t a little ironic that the Heat are on pace to win a second straight NBA title despite being the worst rebounding team statistically in the NBA this season.

    I would trade the pick, the team is in rebuild mode and I am not sure Burke is the guy I really want on my team. Since my team needs a PG a PF and maybe a SG depending on how they feel about Afflalo still.

    Considering that is the only aggressive thing he has ever done in his life, it is not likely he will do anything. Maybe if he did I might respect him more. But its alright enjoy your higher ticket prices to pay this joker 11 million a year.

    Right now, the most realistic is Asik. If Houston pursue D12, sign and trade JJ and a couple second round picks, maybe Joel Freeland or somebody for Asik.
