Whoa, Nellie! Warriors rehire Don Nelson
Aug. 29, 2006

The Golden State Warriors have lured Don Nelson back from retirement to see if he can fix a franchise that's been broken ever since he left 11 1/2 years ago. Coach Mike Montgomery was abruptly dismissed by the Warriors on Tuesday, and Nelson will be rehired for the job he held for nearly seven seasons, an NBA source told The Associated Press. The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal hadn''t been announced, said the 66-year-old Nelson settled his differences with Warriors owner Chris Cohan and agreed to return to a team that has been Golden in name only since the second-winningest coach in NBA history left in February 1995.
