That surprises me because I thought he was still on staff with the Dallas Mavericks as a consultant or something. His son is the general manager of the Mavs. (Who are winning it all this year, fyi).comment:www.metafilter.com,2006:site.54342-1418424Tue, 29 Aug 2006 13:22:56 -0800diosBy: brain_drain

It will take more than Nelson to bring that team out of the abyss. New management would be a good start.comment:www.metafilter.com,2006:site.54342-1418438Tue, 29 Aug 2006 13:33:23 -0800brain_drainBy: macmac

Actually, I think that Nelson will be able to make Golden State respectable again. He won't be able to make them a good team in the playoffs, but he wasn't really able to do that in Dallas either -- it took a tough-minded coach like Avery to do that. What he can do in Golden State is get guys to go out there and run, and get a depressed (with good reason) fanbase excited about basketball again. This might actually be the first smart move that Mullin has made since he became a GM.comment:www.metafilter.com,2006:site.54342-1418472Tue, 29 Aug 2006 13:55:13 -0800macmacBy: SeizeTheDay

Nelson is the <b>3rd</b> winningest coach <a href="http://www.hoophall.com/history/nba_winningest_coaches.htm">in NBA history</a>, behind Wilkins AND Riley. Hopefully he'll have better luck with the Warriors than he did with the Knicks (whom he coached prior to the Mavs). The Mavs, when he coached them, had very special, talented players (as did the Knicks). I don't think he'll find any success with the Warriors because I don't their team is all that strong, and his coaching style, IMHO, isn't aggressive enough to win with average talent.comment:www.metafilter.com,2006:site.54342-1418493Tue, 29 Aug 2006 14:05:30 -0800SeizeTheDayBy: pwb503

<em>"Nelson is the 3rd winningest coach in NBA history, behind Wilkins AND Riley"</em>
I could be wrong but it was my understanding that Nelson had surpased Riley since the 2003-2004 season (date of that chart). Although that might have changed since Riley fired Van Gundy and came back last year.

I don't know, dios. I think the Mavs peaked and they'll now begin a slow descent into the middle echelons. Winning the first two and then losing the next four has to do something to their confidence.comment:www.metafilter.com,2006:site.54342-1418683Tue, 29 Aug 2006 16:34:22 -0800forrestBy: SeizeTheDay

I think you're right, pwb503. I forgot that Nellie kept coaching after Riley stepped up to GM. No way Riley caught up to Nellie last year (he's probably got 50 wins on him by now).comment:www.metafilter.com,2006:site.54342-1418694Tue, 29 Aug 2006 16:45:41 -0800SeizeTheDayBy: damn dirty ape

"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself. A minute later and she was her cold calm self again. As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain. Extraneous decoration, such as detached filagree work of iron, or painting in colours, is [159] so repulsive to the taste of the true engineer and mechanic that it is unnecessary to speak against it.

The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law.

Reuben did not go to the Fair that autumn¡ªthere being no reason why he should and several why he shouldn't. He went instead to see Richard, who was down for a week's rest after a tiring case. Reuben thought a dignified aloofness the best attitude to maintain towards his son¡ªthere was no need for them to be on bad terms, but he did not want anyone to imagine that he approved of Richard or thought his success worth while. Richard, for his part, felt kindly disposed towards his father, and a little sorry for him in his isolation.
