And Richardson is still out... Damn, this team could be as good as the 03-04 Mavs, maybe better. I can't help but wonder how good they would be if they still had Dampier, or another legitimate center.

They do have Foyle, who is at least Dampier Light. But they are going to hang their hat on Biedrins. In this day and age, Biedrins appears to be every bit a legitimate center. If they come across some plodding half-court teams, and feel inclined to play them at their own game, they can always bring in Foyle.
But yes, Spiral, I would not rule out a 50-win season out by the bay. |

And this is no one-man team. Baron Davis sits on the bench with bruised ribs and Monta Ellis comes in and drops 31 on the Sonics. No Davis and no Murphy doesn't mean no victory for these Warriors. It's all about the system and the head coach. I think if Nelson had been the coach of the Mavs in the mid ninties, he would have won 50 games with Donald Hodge, Terry Davis and Scotty Brooks!

Boy, how you like Nellie now? Knocking off the two top teams in the conference in consecutive games.
Pretty salty! |

I heard Nellie has never lost a finals game, now that's impressive!

Its good to see a division rival lose a game.
Other than that, I couldn't give two shits about it.

Nah I love Nellie, I've just seen all this before. I'd love nothing more than to see Nellie win a ring (after the mavs do), but the warriors can't excite me much by doing well in the regular season.

Boy, if you have missed the playoffs for ten years running, or whatever it is, and you can't get excited about beating the Spurs...something is wrong. Maybe you have yawning disease.

I kinda imagine nowadays that chum is tucked away in a sports bar like Bob Swerkski, except Nellie is his Ditka.

Why would I get excited about that? I haven't followed them. I haven't sat through 10 seasons of missed playoffs. I'm not even close to being a Warriors fan.
The only reason this game affects me is because the spurs get a big ole' L in the standings. |

I'm not going to be happy for any team that plays against the Mavs. Especially teams that beat the Mavs already this season.
Actually I might be happy if the Blazers do somethin'. They're just so darn cute! |

So who would win, a team full of Nellies or the 85-86 Celtics?

Mini-Nellies: 152, 85-86 Celtics: 6.
Just so it's fair. |

Yeah, probably would be a shutout except for a crazy Dennis Johnson shot at the buzzer that impresses the NBA so much they award the Celts six points.

Actually, it was two baskets and two free throws by Bird. But on two trips. He missed one each time.

I think we should all take a moment to pause and just reflect on just how good a coach Don Nelson is.
Wow. I mean, really. And another thing: How good will that team be when Davis, Pietrus, and Diogu get healthy? They are clearly top-six in the league. If Nellie's playoff performance as a coach is any indication, the teams ahead of them best be very, very careful. Nellie is well known for winning playoff series as an underdog, as he did here in Dallas against the Jazz in 2001. |

Every morning when I wake up and realize this world has Don Nelson in it, I smile knowing the world is a safer place.

Not really. When they realize the billions upon billions of revenue Nellie's run-and-gun offensive scheme generates for the NBA in general, the owners are happy to receive just a cut of that. Even with a guaranteed 2-4 losses per year, the owners are happy to at least have financial security.

That could be.
But they certainly don't want to face him in the playoffs, else they lose a few extra games. |

Nellie had his team clickicking on all cylinders. The game was fairly tight most of the game until the fourth, when the Warriors went on an incredible run. For several minutes, the Spurs could not buy a shot and everything the Warriors touched was golden.
It was a great win for Nellie and the Warriors (dammit!) |

My Guy Lyrics and Prime Artist: Mary Wells Nothing you could say Can tear me away from my guy Nothing you could do Cause I'm stuck like glue to my guy I'm stickin to my guy like a stamp to a letter Like birds of a feather We..... stick together I will tell you from the start I can't be torn apart from my guy. Nothing you can do Could make me untrue to my guy Nothing you could buy Could make me tell a lie to my guy... I gave my guy my word of honor To be faithful, and I'm gonna You best be believing I won't be deceiving my guy... As a matter of opinion I think he's tops.. My opinion is he's the cream of the crop As a matter of taste to be exact He's my ideal as a matter of fact.. No muscle bound man could take my hand from my guy No handsome face could ever take the place of my guy He may not be a movie star But when it comes to be happy we are.. There's not a man today who could take me away from my guy No muscle bound man could take my hand from my guy No handsome face could ever take the place of my guy He may not be a movie star But when it comes to be happy we are.. There's not a man today who could take me away from my guy There's not a man today who could take me away from my guy |
