Smitch Fired.

Sam Mitchell was fired today and it was announced around 5 pm. Mitchell was the winningest coach in the history of the Raptors franchise at 156-189 (.452) The decision was made after the Raptors were made a mockery of last night in Denver losing 132-93. The former Canadian coach and current Raptors assistant coach Jay Triano will serve as the interim head coach for the time being. Brian Colangelo means business and he's committed to taking the franchise to another level. I personally enjoyed Sam's time as a Raptor's coach and his bouts with the media were pretty amusing. I wish him the best and hopefully this will work out for the best for the Raptors. I'm just wondering why this couldn't have happened when Mike D'Antoni was still available.

To Each His Own.
