RUMOR: Golden State Warriors Head Coach Don Nelson on his way out
It amazes me how little love coach Don Nelson gets after coaching masterfully and overachieving with not 1, but 2 poorly constructed rosters (2006-2007 WE BELIEVE and 2007-2008 48 wins) by former GM Chris Mullin, should-be-former team president Robert Rowell, and the worst owner in all of sports Chris Cohan.
It amazes me how much vitriol is pointed at Nellie by the media AFTER a blowout win on the road in New York.
From all this hysteria you would think Nellie has been a loser his entire second tenure with the Warriors with the likes of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant.
After the jump we dissect CBS Sports Ken Berger's piece Nelson's abrasive style might have him on way out.

RUMOR: Chris Bosh to Warriors for Andris Biedrins and "a lot more"
We know Larry Riley and Don Nelson would be ecstatic to have Chris Bosh in a Warriors jersey this season, but would the Raptors actually trade away their cornerstone even before the 2010 free agent madness?
A strange picture indeed.

Offseason Boredom: Warriors Offer C.J. Watson $4.5 million over 3 years
UPDATE (8/18/09 8:31am): And it don't stop!
Warriors guard Watson has few options [Inside Bay Area]
Warriors general manager Larry Riley has turned down all the offers he's received for Watson, the latest and most significant coming from the Orlando Magic, according to a person close to the talks. Riley turned down a first-round draft pick, cash and a reserve guard, the source said.
Riley Working Magic with Watson? [Inside the Warriors]
So, with Watson’s only option being a sign-and-trade, his agent, obviously, goes to work looking for a deal. Riley, weighing Watson against what he’s being offered, has said no each time. The latest offer: a first-round pick (which would likely be a really late first-rounder), cash and a guard on the bench (one that is under contract - so likely Anthony Johnson because certainly it wasn’t J.J. Redick. or Jameer Nelson) The result, the Warriors are likely going to get Watson at a bargain. Either Watson will play for the qualifying offer, which is just over a million. Or Watson will sign for three years and $1.5 million a year - which is likely below market value (if Watson were an unrestricted free agent).
Watson Staying With Golden State? [Hoopsworld]
Keep in mind that any deal over the $800,000 Watson earned last season makes him a Base Year Compensation player, and in a sign-and-trade deal the Warriors could only take back 50% of Watson's first year salary, meaning to have any real value to the Warriors, Watson's first year salary would have to be north of $4 million. A Trade Player Exception has no real asset value unless it's over $2 million. A deal involving Anthony Johnson at $1.9 million means a first year salary of almost $4 million; a deal involving J.J. Reddick means a first year salary of almost $6 million - astronomical numbers for C.J. Watson.
