webber was actually good in his rookie year. not a dumb premadonna that thinks hes the next coming of jc.

now i actually like randolph because he is passinate but he needs to grow up. he looks like a 10 year old that doesn’t get his way sitting on the bench. you can see immaturity just by looking at him.
he’s got a lot of developing to do. he wouldn’t play much for oklahoma city.

you have to earn playing time, you don’t get it when you dont produce. randolph has produced in maybe 3 out of the 10 games hes gotten significant playing time in. thats not good enough.

if randolph got playing time right now he would only lose confidence and create bad habits, like taking jumpers that he has no chance of making, or going for blocks and not actually playing defense. he gets good help blocks but any 1 on 1 situation he gets embarrassed.

it is now clear that a lot of people on this website dont have a clue what they’re talking about. one week jackson is the devil and the next week hes our savior. DONT MAKE COMMENT IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT. high school coaches dont want to hear the parents opinion…

but nellie’s just as much as a part of that future as of right now. the only compromise is we gotta pray randolph starts doing something right during practice, nelson gives him some minutes, and randolph’s attitude problem ends. And that falls just as much on his teammates as much as it does on nelson, to get a.r. in line. i’m getting tired of this blame game, i just want to see this team gel.

had a remarkably similar situation to nelson this year, and was unfairly fired. (i posted something similar to this a few weeks back, so apologies to those of you who are re-reading it) he lost his star player, and his team lost a bunch of games. he has a rep for never coaching defense and only caring about offense, but in all fairness, never had a great defensive lineup to work with, but always had scorers around. when his team couldn’t win any games because they still lacked defenders, but now didn’t have a great scorer at the point to make up for that (to an extent), he got canned. i felt bad for him when it happened and he had butler and jamison to work with. nellie just has biedrins and a bunch of chuckers. despite that, he managed a much better record than jordan. when nellie rides off into the sunset, i’d love to bring jordan in. i think he’s a really good coach. i’m just not down for firing nelson to get him.

Man the Warriors…. I didn’t think they were such bandwagoners. If they can trade Monta that would be ideal, but who are we kidding. With 2010 coming up we are likely to move Monta as we are to move Corey Maggette. That said the Warriors aren’t even tanking enough to lock in a top 5 pick. And even if we did Mully’s had a hit and miss draft history. Personally, I think it’s time to let Mully go to the Knicks and reunit with Donnie Walsh. Let’s see where Nellie can take us and if crash like the hindenburg then atleast we’ll hit rock bottom rather than the 25 to 30 win mediocrity that the Dubs walked through the mid-90s to mid-2000’s in.

  Firing Nellie cause he let them run off Jason does make sense though. and contrary to popular belief Rudolf doesn’t have an attitude problem, Nellie does, why do you think Webber left? Nellie doesn’t understand how to get the best out of young players which is not a good thing when we have a young team. We need someone who can connect with them and build the team, not build a soap opera about himself.

Developing a young player involves more than just playing them “if they earn their minutes”. A certain 13th overall pick in the 1997 season didn’t do much to earn minutes, in fact he shot just 41% from the field. But a certain coach who is far more disiplined and patient than Nellie stuck with this player despite his poor stats and key missed shots in the playoffs. Im not saying Anthony Randolph will be as good as this player, but the way Phil Jackson was patient with Kobe Bryant should be a lesson to our current coach.

i, on the other hand, am crazy with anger!!!!!!!!!!!! fire the coach? are you f*cking kidding me? that’s all you people can come up with!?!? that is just the most coca-cola, middle-america, idiotic viewpoint. fire nellie, and then what? i’ll tell you what! the dubs start going through coaches like 49ers offensive coordinators, that’s what!

i mean, i could understand if these comments were being made in a casual conversation on the street, but you people JOINED this website. you had to come up with a password and everything! surely you must have SOME vague memory fragment of the warriors previous EIGHT COACHES!!!!!! they were beyond horrible! do you peope want another pj carlesimo!?!? i don’t care if nellie bends randolph over his knee and spanks him in front of the entire team. that’s STILL better than some bumbling interim coach with his head up his ass!

phew. sorry….
