Nellie does it again

Don Nelson has done it again, pulled a rabbit out of his hat and made magic with an NBA team. He did it in Milwaukee with the Bucks, he did it at Golden State in the early 90's, he did it with Dallas and to top it off, he did it a second time around with Golden State by thumping the Dallas Mavericks in 6 games.

It is no secret that Nellie and Mark Cuban, the Mavericks owner, are not on speaking terms; apparently Nelson believes that Cuban still owes him several million dollars when he served as Vice President/General Manager/Coach of the Mavericks and suprise, suprise Cuban does not agree. I am sure there was a certain amount of satisfaction for Nellie in putting Cuban's team to rest for the season by an 8th seeded team.

Cuban displayed a very childish attitude throughout the series, especially after game one when he pushed off a Warrior player that accidently bumped into him.

Congralutions Nellie, if anyone deserves it more than Mark Cuban losing, you do in being the coach putting it to him.

Hey Mark, bet you regret letting the general get away this time eh?
