Remembering the Time When Nellie Was Asked How He’s Been Spending His Time In Retirement.
“I never smoked when I played or coached” yeah on Donnie neither did Phil* wink *wink
He smoked but did not inhale
I mean, young people didn’t smoke pot in the late 60s right?
Life goals
I just want to do a press conference to announce I’m smoking pot as well. Definite life goal
Literally every story I’ve heard today is about him smoking as a coach and hanging out and drinking with the run tmc warriors lol
Favorite story was after the we believe warriors closed out the mavericks they went to Nellie’s apartment and he yelled “hey guys, Woody Harrelson’s in the back rolling doobies!”
legend
Note he did not say he started smoking pot ….
players’ coach
Rip
Don was and still is my absolute favorite Mavs coach of all time. He saw things in Dirk and Nash that no one else did. He didn’t give a shit about defense and he’d literally trade the entire team on a whim if he got bored.
