While I doubt I ever forgive him for leading the player revolt while he was in Denver it is interesting that some players seem to speak so highly of him. I figured some may be interested to find out he is now a coach in Atlanta.

Giving him that contract after trading for him (likely as a part of the McDyess deal) was terrible. We would have been just better off building thru the draft, rather then go for a quick fix.

McDyess's injury and NVE's trade demand was probably a blessing in disguise.

I watched unguarded recently about Chris Herren's troubles with drug usage. It was interesting to hear that his best year of sobriety was here while with NVE and Dice who helped him stay away from the party life. He didnt drink or smoke because they didnt. Until hearing of that story, I always figured Nick wasnt a good teammate.
