The Orlando Magic have released a statement that Brian Hill has resigned or been fired as the coach of their team, they're not sure which.
"We're still investigating what happened here. Obviously, it's going to take some time to sort out. In any case, he won't be the head coach next season, although he might work for us in some other capacity, maybe as GM...unless of course he decides to hire himself as the head coach, because that would just be embarrassing," said team president Bob Vander Weide.
Brian Hill and his agent declined to comment, due to the possibility that he might be hired by Orlando again in a year or two.
Bob Vander Weide agreed that it's not inconceivable that Hill might coach Orlando again in the future.
"Who knows, maybe we'll get lucky and get a decent coach for once, but if not, we can always bring Brian back a year or two down the road. I'm sure he'll be available, who else wants him? We will miss Brian, but we're gonna take a roll of the dice right now. He did have some success when he had two superstars in [Penny] Hardaway and Shaq years ago, so if we pick up any crazy stars like that in the future, we may bring him back. We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."
"Ya never know," Vander Weide added, laughing; "Maybe third time's the charm on this guy."
