Watch him get traded to the Pacers for Tyler Hansbrough

He’s the best coach for that team. They wont beat teams defensively but they have the roster to run up scores. Beasley will be a 25 ppg guy under Nellie. Plus Nellie has a stiffie for Tolliver.

Definitely.

I remember the reason Nellie didn’t want to coach anymore was when they didn’t re-sign Tolliver.

Throw in Randolph and it's a party

try another version — Nelson saw the proverbial writing on the wall, that he wasn’t in the new regime’s plans, when his request to retain Tolliver was ignored. And that was minor, compared to being ignored by Lacob after the team’s sale went through. The anti-nelsonites have a tendency to overstate his influence over personnel during his final seasons.

Nellie

has a stiffie for all bench players.

by saint.dee on Jul 12, 2011 5:00 PM PDT reply actions

Do we want Randolph back?

and if so who would trade to get him.

by Myssabar on Jul 12, 2011 5:13 PM PDT reply actions

Lacob hates him.

Not happening.

True

But if Mark Jackson wants him and we can get rid of Charlie Bell and other contracts.

I called this months ago

Seemed like a great fit for Nellie - and the way the Warriors did Nellie, I think he really wants to go out on a positive note.

This team is young and athletic, and contrary to public opinion, Nelson can develop young players – especially Point Guards.

No way the Wolves are even close to factoring A Randolph in their decision as to who they hire. Rather, it’s all about KLove and Rubio – 2 players that will love to play under Nellie.

I see it happening and if so, I see the W’s finishing behind the Wolves (barring a trade for Howard)

derrick williams

might have to be factored in with those two especially since i highly doubt love will be a twolve for too much longer. we’ll see

Go Twolves! Twolves fan now :-)

Eh, I dunno why Nellie would want to do that. He’d be spending winter in Minnesota, all to coach a talentless, mismatched pile of crap that can’t play defense (furthering Nellie’s reputation as not caring about D) and won’t win many games in general. I can see why the TWolves would want him, just not why he’d want the TWolves.

by Missing Barry on Jul 13, 2011 12:01 PM PDT reply actions

But

Kevin Love outlet passes?

Derrick Williams is also a near prototype of Nellieball PF.

He’ll love the fact they have zero wings though

by tafkasam on Jul 13, 2011 1:04 PM PDT up reply actions

Seriously.

But they need to trade one of their bigs for a wing.

True, Nellie would realize what a bum Flynn is and make sure he never has to embarass himself in the NBA again.

“we should have adjusted more to fit Jonny’s style as well. We should have been able to have our cake and eat it too, and also install some things that play to Jonny’s capabilities, to push the ball and to get into some pick and roll situations. And I think Kurt erred maybe too much on the side of trying to teach Jonny how to be the perfect point guard, without giving him some opportunities along the way to have some success.”

Yet another reason for Nellie to avoid that job like the plague.

and i forgot they have brad miller

This is like nellie dream bigman lineup: Love, Miller, Tolliver, Williams.

Just launching jumpers and outlet passes all day

by tafkasam on Jul 13, 2011 1:29 PM PDT up reply actions

Yeah, Rubio and their bigs are a great match for Nellie.

But the wings suck so bad. He needs a couple of wings who can play the 4 on occasion, shoot the 3, and defend decently well.

4 on occasion, shoot the 3,

I think he’d play 2 of Love, Tolliver, Williams. Beasley as his 4/5. Undersized but skillset wise he’d be happy.

But yeah the 2 and 3 positions are major problems

by tafkasam on Jul 14, 2011 9:56 AM PDT up reply actions

Minn should consider Musselman

he’d work for a lot less money than Nelson and have huge motivation to succeed. When he turned around GS he got the offense turned around without neglecting defense, and he’s done well with younger guys in the d-league.

I'm confounded.

He did a good job as coach, i’m curious why he was ever fired. Seemed like the best coach we’ve had this decade besides Nellie 2006-2007.

IIRC Montgomery was killing the college ranks and they thought he’d be a sure thing in the NBA? Much like KeithSmart both Musselman and Montgomery were not really given enough time to see what they could really do and i’d take any of the three plus Nellie over oneliner MarkJackson.

Eh Monty lost the team, especially Baron, and got to the point where all he was doing was collecting paychecks. Maybe he could succeed in another NBA position, but it definitely wasn’t going to happen with us, and he’s a great fit for college coaching anyways.
