Kevin Pritchard is widely viewed as having done an excellent job in Portland.  Nonetheless, the Blazers' GM could be on his way out and one source suggested that New York could be a logical landing spot for Pritchard.  Donnie Walsh is expected to conduct a search for his heir apparent after the summer free-agency period is over.

Mark Warkentien is also in limbo in Denver.  The decision-making process on Warkentien's future was supposed to go into motion shortly after the Nuggets were eliminated.  But there has been no movement to date.  Warkentien's contract expires August 1.
