Colangelo Closing in on Contract Extension/Colangelo officially extended

[yertu damkule]

well, thank GAWWD! i'd hate to see just how low this franchise would sink without BC steering the ship.

now, excuse me while i make plans to watch the lottery tonight...can't wait to see where the raps will be picking...again.

wash...rinse...repeat...

Bad decision. Hopefully it is only a 2 year deal with a team option for the 3rd year.

If he brings back Triano to coach again after 3 consecutive losing seasons under his tenure we will get to witness another 50+ loss season.

Hopefully that means another high pick in 2012. Raps need the talent.

Great, now a number 1 pick would cap it off.

I was gonna post this but had to step away. I'm ecstatic about the news. Shows that they do see consistency as an issue with our franchise and that BC's work has more positives than negatives. It's a great move on the franchise's part to consider this. I'm happy for BC.

Great news.
Nice find Opti.

With their eyes on an ever-more-probable exit, the pension plan’s representatives have appeared unwilling exert influence on a future that isn’t likely to include them. That’s been a boon to the Raptors’ GM, of course, since the pension plan’s Glen Silvestri has made a name as the chief anti-Colangelo voice on the board of directors.

This is the point I've been wondering for quite a while.
Glad to hear they've finally come to their sense.
