I mean decline option on him
Not his fault if TO sucks IMO, but the coach is always the scapegoat
At least canadians know how to spell "there"
Link follow shortly?
Hopefully.
He looked swell all decked out in his suits though. Not since Bob Hill have I seen spiffier.
Nothing yo can really do when the best player leave and you're left with crap .......
Who coaches them next? When is Avery Johnson due to be unemployed?
Oh yeah that's really gonna get the Raptors over the hump.
He is like a worse version of Mike D'Toni. No defense good fast offensive mind
Uh, he's already in NJ.
They are keeping Jay as a consultant
Raptors and Leafs are most likely to be bought out by Rogers so they are probably gonna want a new coach to signal a new era anyway.
Not sure why they kept Colangelo, he is just terrible in every sense of the word.
Lol @ Colangelo. What does it take to get this guy fired?
The search for a new coach will begin immediately and there is no firm deadline in place. Colangelo did not mention names but said he'd be interested in someone with a "defensive-minded perspective."
"I think tenure, experience, success, rate of success, those will all be factored in," Colangelo said.
The Raptors finished 22-60 this season, last in the Atlantic Division.
The announcement came two weeks after Colangelo agreed to a multiyear contract extension. He has spent five years at the helm of Canada's lone NBA team.
Colangelo said P.J. Carlesimo -- the only assistant coach who remains under contract for next season -- is not a candidate to replace Triano at this time.
OMG Colangelo is a genius
Colangelo fills the roster with Charmin-soft Europeans who don't play a lick of defense then he blames the coach for them being a bad defensive team

Phil Jackson has spoken highly of Triano this season and his main rival for best coach in the game - now that Utah's Jerry Sloan has sadly left the building - Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich, was the latest to praise Triano following Wednesday's 111-100 loss to the Spurs.
"I thought Coach Triano had a great gameplan and they gave us all we could handle," Popovich said of the Raptors, who took a three-point lead into the final quarter.
"I thought they worked hard from the beginning to the end and put us in a lot of situations where it really hurt us defensively."
lol colangelo
