McMillan was promoted by the Pacers from assistant coach to head coach to
replace Frank Vogel in 2016.
McMillan(以下简称老麦)在离开拓荒者后，在2013年加入溜马的助教团，并且在
2016年Frank Vogel没被续约后，升官接掌总教练职务。
"All the Indiana Pacers do under Nate McMillan is win," said Zach Lowe.
Lowe先以这段话起头︰“老麦掌管下的溜马队，做到最好的事情就是‘努力赢球’
。”
Lowe also credited how the Pacers have created a culture of commitment on
defense, but suggested the franchise could make a coaching change to take a
leap offensively.
主持人也赞美了溜马建立了球员愿意积极防守的文化，但他也暗示球队假如要大幅
提升进攻的品质，可能会做教练的更动。
"I've had two people come up to me since I've been here and say 'You know,
Nate McMillan is in trouble," said Van Gundy.
JVG回复道︰“我自从来到奥兰多园区之后，的确有两个联盟相关人士，在跟我寒暄
后，顺便补爆料‘你知道吗，老麦正陷入(可能下台)的麻烦中。’”
"It's been the hottest rumor all season," interjected Lowe. "It's been a
rumor all season long."
主持人又插嘴︰“这其实是这个球季最热门的乳摸啊，一个围绕了整个球季的乳摸
啊！”
Van Gundy asserted the Pacers could risk taking a bigger step back by moving
on from McMillan.
然而，JVG也断言溜马一旦不再与McMillan续约，球队也将承受战绩大退化的
风险。
"What you've heard in Orlando has been going around all season," said Lowe.
Lowe added that the Pacers have denied the rumor to him privately.
Lowe又有点跳针的回应“你在奥兰多听到的那些话，已经传遍整个赛季了！”
但他最后也补充︰溜马队已经私下对他否认了这个会影响球队士气的谣言。
