Nellie should be given a farewell season. As a Warrior, he deserves it. He rebuilt the franchise TWICE. Not his fault Rowell blew up the team this time around.

With only 1 year left on his deal + the top coaching prospects already having signed deals…the new ownership will be looking at leftovers by the time they take over the team.

Give Nellie his last year – show him some respect — and take a year to evaluate the team the just bought. THEN make a clean transition to a new Coach and GM.

If anything, replace Riley with a new GM and let him evaluate the team in Nellie’s swan song.

If anything, Nellie will be highly motivated to win and go out as best he can, putting as much distance between him and Pat Riley (coming back?) and Jerry Sloan.

Too many positive’s for keeping Nellie around. Dumping him and rashly hiring a new coach could be a very risky endeavor.

Brian Shaw? Really? That’s how a new owner would make a splash?!?! Might as well hire Brian Winter.

The guy I’d talk to is BILL LAIMBEER!

So I don’t think we can take either for there word on players and assume, he’d go for best player available.

Less you forget Riley’s love of beef, a la Curry
