Same way when I got the job and all the stuff that was going on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Splitter was named Portland&#8217;s interim head coach after Chauncey Billups was arrested by the FBI as part of a federal investigation into a rigged high-stakes poker scheme with links to the mafia. Billups pleaded not guilty to charges of money laundering and wire fraud.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"inline editorial float-r\" data-behavior=\"article_related\">\n<h2 class=\"editorial-title\">Editor&#8217;s Picks<\/h2>\n<p>2 Related<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Splitter took over the morning after Billups&#8217; arrest and has overseen a 42-40 record, the No. 7 seed in the Western Conference playoffs and the development of All-Star forward <a data-player-guid=\"c025f56a-78ee-3e47-be5a-f962c1b58ffb\" href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/player\/_\/id\/4683021\/deni-avdija\">Deni Avdija<\/a>, who was named a finalist for Most Improved Player.<\/p>\n<p>Sources close to the situation told ESPN that Splitter was given a raise from his assistant coaching salary and discussed a longer-term contract during the season. The salary presented to him to continue on as head coach was far below a standard NBA head coaching salary, and further discussion was tabled until after the season, sources said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He got thrown in a difficult situation,&#8221; Avdija said after the Trail Blazers evened the series Tuesday night. &#8220;It wasn&#8217;t easy for him to just all of a sudden take the head job. But I think he&#8217;s done phenomenal. He&#8217;s getting the best out of everybody. He&#8217;s believing in each and single one of his players, and we love playing for him. He&#8217;s a winner. He&#8217;s a competitor. He knows how it is to win a championship. He&#8217;s passionate, and he got all the tools to be a great coach, and that&#8217;s what he&#8217;s doing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Oregonian reported last week that Dundon wants to pay in the range of $1 million per year for a head coach. His goal, according to the report, is to run the organization more efficiently, just as he did when he bought the NHL&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nhl\/team\/_\/name\/car\/carolina-hurricanes\">Carolina Hurricanes<\/a>. On Sunday, the Rose Garden Report added that as part of the franchise&#8217;s cost-cutting measures, the Trail Blazers did not bring any of their two-way players on the road for the playoffs, something that no other playoff team did.<\/p>\n<p>NBA reporter Jake Fischer reported this week that Dundon had started speaking to 15 to 20 prospective candidates, including college coaches and NBA assistant coaches.<\/p>\n<p>Sources told ESPN that one of the Trail Blazers&#8217; other recent cost-cutting moves was cutting back on complimentary tickets to home playoff games for support staff.<\/p>\n<p>Asked before Game 2 whether the awkward situation was affecting the team as it prepares for the playoffs, Splitter said he spoke to the players at the beginning of the play-in tournament and advised them &#8220;that it&#8217;s not a time to be in your social media now and reading everything that is out there or even on TV. A couple coaches that I had gave me that advice. I know it&#8217;s hard. Social media is part of our lives, but trying to just focus on basketball.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nba\/story\/_\/id\/48556720\/blazers-splitter-dundon-reports-trying-pro\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ramona ShelburneApr 21, 2026, 11:07 PM ET Close Senior writer for ESPN.com Spent seven years at the Los Angeles Daily News Multiple Authors SAN ANTONIO &#8212;
