McHale sucks! What does he have to do to get fired himself? The guy is the most inept GM in the history of the NBA!!!

It also sounds like he has to give up his GM duties. I would think Hoiberg will be the GM the rest of the season.

Becoming the coach was the straw that broke Isiah's back in a similar situation. Perhaps this is the beginning of the end?

We could only hope.
I am so happy they finally got rid of Wittman. He is a joke of a coach. I just wish McHale would go too.

Was hoping Taylor wouldn't sound quite as supportive as he did. But definitely seems like McHale's leash has been significantly shortened. Shouldn't be long now....
Drove me crazy listening to the press conference and McHale's "plan" and it staying the same etc etc. Cap room? CAP ROOM?! Who is possibly going to want to come here, regardless of our cap room. Man that guy is oblivious.

Plus, McHale and Taylor dodged questions like Denny Green. It was funny seeing him think carefully about every answer, especially when they asked why McHale was relieved of his VP duties. It will be interesting to see if McHale can turn the team around.
I also like how he was relieved of his VP duties. I hope he has NO say in anything from now on other than the starting lineups.

I'd rather see McHale get fired than Chili

Yay! We are going to the Finals!!! Pfff nothing more than placing the blame on the head coach. I know Whitman sucked, but come on. The real reason we suck is because of McFail. Maybe this will be the last time we see McFail near the Timber Wolves. Then again, who knows?

yeah but the kings owners are worse than him at ruining a good team. I don't even watch
the NBA anymore and i used to get seven to ten tickets a year and watch all the games I could.
