Don Nelson tells Anthony Randolph to see a trade 

Post#1 » by Blind0188 » Sun Dec 21, 2008 2:41 am

Golden State coach Don Nelson has reportedly told rookie forward Anthony Randolph to tell his agent to seek a trade from the team.

Nelson doesn't believe that the young forward fits well with the Warriors.

ESPN's Chris Broussard originally reported the news on the air.

I've never really seen his game outside of the Summer League, should the Mavericks consider dealing for him?

Nelson's announcement came on a day ESPN reported that he had confronted 19-year-old rookie Anthony Randolph and told him, "You should start having your agent look into trades because this isn't working out."

After the game, Nelson admitted to speaking with Randolph about his agent, but not to suggest Randolph ought to relocate. Rather, to work on things to improve his game.

"I do want to talk to his agent. I did say his agent, and I need to sit down and talk. (Randolph's) got to make adjustments," said Nelson, calling the report untrue. "I talked to (Randolph) about sitting down with his agent because he's got to work at practice, do some things to get better."


Randolph's agent is a former nba player, BJ Armstrong. And nellie will be gone in less than a 1 year if he continues to tank on purpose just to retire early with that 2 year 16 mill extension. Nellie also gave defensive responsibilities to his assistant coaches so he does less. You guys should know what will happen soon

Damage control!

Yes, I said this, but when asked later, I will say what I should have said in the first place to keep his trade value up.

Just to let you know.

Nellie is not the same person he was the last couple seasons. The day he got that extension he acted like he's the owner and no one can **** with him. Right now he's basically daring the owner to fire him. This is all Nellie's master plan...get as much money as he can before retiring with minimal work and stress on him. This isnt what the owner or the warriors president(who gave him that extension) planned out. Randolph wont go anywhere unless warriors find a way to replace randolph with the same talent comming back
