You know, many people ask themselves how come the warriors are 16 wins over 0.500 and still be 8th seed

Since Nellie came to Oakland, THE CITY is motivated (the crowd), the players are motivated :wink:

Nah, I think Doc Rivers will take it. From last to first? I mean dang.. even with the additions, you got to make it work.

Are the Warriors underrated? Do we deserve more respect? Is Monta Ellis underrated? Should our 19PPG scorer have been in the All Star game? How come nobody talks about us beating the 1st or 2nd seed in the Western conference? They only talk about the top 7 teams. We did beat Boston and SA and the Lakers this year. We might have a chance to do some damage in the playoffs.

Not this year.

Maybe a vote, maybe.

I think Doc Rivers have the edge in tight race for Coach of the year, but other Coaches like Byron Scott, Rick Adelman, Nellie they deserve more serious consideration than they'll get.

this year is scott, but nelly should be in the top4.

Yeah Byron Scott has this thing locked up almost. The Celtics were supposed to be this good, regardless of the coach. The Hornets are the surprise team and Scott is a huge part of that.

I don't think Doc Rivers is as deserving as other for COY. I mean, with Garnett, Pierce and Ray Ray, you're already expecting them to be good, but the Hornets and Blazers have surprised the whole league with their success.

1) Byron Scott
2) Nate McMillan

No, he's already won that meaningless award enough times.

he won't win it, probably won't be considered very much either

Adelman has a shot if he can keep winning without Yao, without stacked talents like other top 12-15 teams in the league.
