I believe so

Warriors fans better hope so.

No. They are going to have to fire him. His ego is to big to quite.

Logically it looks like Nellie must go but don't be so sure of it. He has built a team that only him and maybe D'Antoni can coach but given the reality check these 09 Knicks have given him I don't think he'd take their money. So Nelly has great leverage. Not to mention with their current roster they can't flip playing styles like Phonix did so don't be surprised if Nelly's still coaching that team five years from now - the rebuilding plan goes on & on.

Ellis on the hand is a star guard who will leave whenver he wants like Jackson, Harrington & Crawford - all he has to do is voice his dislike for Nelly.

So the bottom line is Nelly has put himself in a position where he is more important to the organization than any star player so management has more to loose if they let him go.

The maddness continues!!!

Enough with Golden state!!

Stay tuned to "As the World Turns"......


Nellie needs the money for retirement and wants to get his record as well. Ellis will be gone too before you know it, just like Jax....

21 more wins? This may go well into next season.

He doesn't need the money. Hell we (tha Mavs) are still paying that buffoon from when he coached here. He "retired" bc his heart wasn't in it anymore and then got the job with GS like a year later. Im glad all of you are seeing what and idiot this guy is and the reason the Mavs never won a championship.

21 more wins...can the warriors wait 3 more seasons for him to hit that mark to end the disaster that is this Warriors team?

I hear you on the other stuff - But he was quoted at the end of last season that he is still working because he does need the money - Hawaii is expensive yo...

He says a lot of things. I know with the Mavs he was getting about 5 million a year in his "retired consulting role" before he got another job with GS. He is a senile old man that says stupid stuff all the time.

Or maybe he needs that money to get that brain replacement surgery since he lost his mind about 8 years ago.

LMAO - That is the answer most likely...

This is entertainment to us...but it is His JOB. Anybody out there NOT needing their job or the paycheck that comes with it??? I don't care if he wins 1 game a year...stay and get paid if they want to pay you! Try to win...but either way....cash that check every FRIDAY...and screw the bum that thinks that is wrong!

no one is disputing this and why most of us understand that
it is & always has been GS OWNERSHIP and management
that has killed this franchise..
....Nellie is simply another bad decision

I sure as hell wouldn't 'quit' - I'd make them fire me so I wouldn't
lose any $$$$$

Man, I read the entire column... waste of time. garbage. just like the warriors.

If you have something else besides love, goodwill and compassion for your job you of course won't be happy or help yourself or anybody... blame the stupid front office that signed his contract. It's a shame such old man are doing this. He needs to be in the same cell with Madoff.

he shouldnt be allowed to break Lenny Wilken's record! am I the only one who sees the injustice in that?
