tom penn is secretly

the real life version of dexter and allen found out about it, but because penn killed someone allen wanted dead he didn’t turn him into the police. Instead he just fired him and is using vague words to describe it because only him and penn know the real reason.

There is a lot more to this Penn story than we know

His quotes saying he can say nothing means he probably had to sign a confidentiality deal, which means he may have done something.

But who knows?

Official statement out

Philosophical differences, hmm:

Portland Trail Blazers Team President Larry Miller announced today that Tom Penn has been relieved of his duties as Vice President of Basketball Operations, effective immediately.

Miller cited philosophical differences as the reason for the dismissal of Penn, who joined the Trail Blazers as assistant general manager in 2007.

“We felt it was in the organization’s best interest to move in a different direction at this time,” Miller said. “This was not an easy decision, as Tom has played an integral role for us the past three seasons. We thank him for his contributions and wish him the best in the future.”

They cheered from the very start of the game, and absolutely blew up during the 4th quarter. Fans in the “good seats” around me were just as passionate as the ones looking down from the nosebleeders, and everybody loved their team.

"He and I were talking over All-Star break, and I told him I don’t know of any player outside of myself that has no weaknesses besides him. If you think about it, he can go left and pull up and shoot. He can go right and pull up and shoot. He can fade left shoulder, he can fade right shoulder. He can shoot the long ball. He can finish at the rim. He can shoot free throws. He has no weaknesses in his offensive game; so if that’s something he wants to do, he can easily do it.

"The thing about scoring is you really don’t have to give a [expletive] because a lot of people will criticize you for doing what you do. That’s when you have to be willing to take that criticism, still play and be aggressive. He’s such a nice, nice kid. I think that’s something that he will have to battle through and struggle with."

Canzano is digging back in time

http://www.oregonlive.com/sports/oregonian/john_canzano/index.ssf/2010/03/canzano_blog_what_in_the_name.html

- A Blazers source tells me that Penn absolutely rubbed owner Paul Allen the wrong way in the war room during the draft that netted Portland Greg Oden. “Paul may never have recovered from that,” source said. But it raises some questions about why Allen would give Penn a raise and promotion so recently. Something more had to have happened for Allen to move so shrewdly to hand Penn the pink slip on Tuesday.
-
- Kevin Pritchard has huge latitude as a GM, and moves around the organization with a wide berth. So how miffed must have Paul Allen been for Pritchard to be unable to save Penn, who is viewed as “KP’s guy” around the building? Curious also that Pritchard isn’t toeing the company line on this one and is throwing it back at Allen.

I talked with Penn on Sunday at the Rose Garden Arena, and my spider senses were firing pre-game when I saw Allen’s favorite executive Bob Whitsitt Todd Lieweke hanging around the arena. I like Lieweke and think he’s done a good job, but when he showed up I started poking around, figuring there was a good reason he’d made the trip.

I’ve been to three games this year, and Lieweke was a two of them. It’s not like “something is happening” when Lieweke shows up at the Rose Garden.

It is unknown why Penn was fired, but it is believed to have come from owner Paul Allen and not Pritchard.

by Timmay! on Mar 16, 2010 10:45 PM PDT up reply actions  

Technically I think that is correct. In terms of boxes, Nate as a member of the basketball ops department reports to Penn who reports to Miller. But maybe they had some matrix structure where Penn reports to both KP and Miller. Who knows.

I've worked in orgs where a person is protected by someone on high.

But eventually the protector shrugs and says “there’s nothing more I can do for you”. While they’re technically against the firing, they know there is little they can do, and that it may be deserved.

I think it’s early to say KP was against it based on released data. I imagine he’s not thrilled, but that unhappiness could be also pointed at Penn, instead of the org.

Really? Without trying to dramatize this – Penn is not irreplaceable – but have you read the CBA? Not just the Wiki or the FAQ, but the actual document? I have, and I wouldn’t claim to understand 80% of what is in there, much less be able to interpret it in five minutes while another team is on the line asking about a move.

There are competent lawyers who can learn what Penn was doing, but the number of people who are currently doing it (and doing it well) is limited. Like any area of the law, years on the job and experience make a difference.

Don't see where it was mentioned above-- I know Cab did
Two officials who spent time in last 10 days with Port GM Kevin Pritchard and fired No 2 guy, Tom Penn, spoke of “awkwardness” and “tension”

League sources have been describing unrest in front office for months, centered on Pritchard’s inability to get new contract after Penn did.

Pritchard helped Penn leverage Portland with Minny job, and sources say GM expected he could get new deal too. Ownership declined, emphatically.

Many believed Penn was destined to run team, but clearly something caused momentum to change lately and Penn lost favor. And his job.

Are you kidding me Awoj? Penn was gonna run the team over KP? C’mon.

As that is not his field of expertise and was never purported to be, and even if Oden was a mistake, everything else KP did isn’t.

The theories that he came over too early are prolly true

I know Amlmart1 had been saying that for YEARS now.

One thing people overlooked, including me, about the Sergio/D’Antoni pairing, is that D’Antoni has jerked around every other PG he has ever had except for Nash. Every backup Nash had was in and out of the rotation, and they’ve never had a consistent starting PG for the Knicks yet (only been two years, and he hasn’t had a clear starter obviously).

D’Antoni might be tough on his PGs. He also seems to run hot and cold with his emotions. He might be a Young Nelly.

Ok people, music fans, this is driving me up the wall

I like this song: South of France, by Harlem. When I first heard it, I swore it was a cover of a Pixies song. I’ve Googled it, and can’t find any mention of it as a Pixies song, or as a cover at all.

But I coulda’ sworn I heard this before.

Has anyone else here heard this song from a while back? Is this a cover? Am I nuts?

I somehow missed this one

This was on NBA.com just under a year ago:

According to Bright Side of the Sun, the backstory:

The Warriors were playing an April Fools joke on one of their broadcasters that was turning 50. They tried to add him to the box score and typed in “DNP – TOO OLD/NO TALENT” but his name wasn’t in the database as a player so somehow it defaulted to Grant Hill.

Tonight's story has been interesting for the reaction

Some people leaned toward Tom Penn’s side, others to the Blazers.

Some saw conspiracies in the timing, others just felt it was generally weird to let someone go now.

Some thought it was about talent, others not.

Some assumed the Clips story was accurate, others believed it wasn’t.

MY PREDICTION

Penn wanted a larger role, as one who is ambition is prone to want, and the “promotion” was a way to quench his thirst for advancement. There isn’t a future in Portland for him if his goal is to, someday soon, be above KP or be equal with KP, so… yeah.

I dunno why he was fired suddenly. If I am right, perhaps to have time to replaced him for the upcoming offseason.

How many wins did you think we'd get prior to the season starting? And now, is jscotjr close you think?

I guessed we’d have 52 wins, because i figured we’d grow as a team from last season, in which we overachieved a little. I knew we’d have injuries, but if i’d of known we’d have this many i would have predicted that we wouldn’t even make it to the playoffs.
So now, looking at the rest of the schedule, I’m going to say 48 games, losing one game that I don’t expect to lose for the next thirteen.

thing about the JD’s is no one except maybe the first few people in the morning read what it is actually about. so it doesn’t really matter.

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re gonna see some serious [stuff].

A bit too much love for the favorites for my taste.

Chalk is the safe pick usually.

1 Seeds have won 14 titles since the current format was adopted. 2 seeds have 4 titles, 3 seeds have 3 titles. Every other seed combined has won 3 times.

Yes! Yes! In the face!

Too much chalk.

So do I

I run a large pool with friends and out of 160 entries, 69 has Kansas winning (Kentucky is next with 38 and there is a large drop off after that).

Anybody notice what Anthony Tolliver did last night?

Thirty points, 6 boards, 4 steals, 3 assists, a blocked shot on 11-19 shooting, 4-8 from 3 point range! I know Golden State is a “stats team”, but come on, the guy must have more talent than the Blazers (and others) gave him credit for!

The problem is that he's not consistant

He’ll do that one day and nothing the next.
