Via twitter, Brian T. Smith of The Columbian quotes Blazers President Larry Miller on the Tom Penn firing and whether the move might foreshadow potential job insecurity for Blazers General Manager Kevin Pritchard... -------------- Blazers president Miller said a senior management group made the decision to fire Penn. "It wasn't just folks in Seattle; there were folks from Portland as well." "This was an incident that was specific to Tom Penn." Miller on perceived animosity toward Pritchard: "That is absolutely being dreamed up." -------------- If you were legitimately concerned about KP's job security, perhaps this helps calm your nerves. -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter Update (Friday, 10:36AM): Here's Smith's full story.
