Oracle Arena in Oakland, CA.
After suffering a loss to the Atlanta Hawks, Coach Don Nelson has reportedly relinquished his defensive coaching decisions and empowered assistant coaches Sidney Moncrief and Keith Smart to focus on the defense.
“I’ve decided to identify one of my weaknesses at this point of my life,” Nelson said. “I’m not tough enough anymore. I’m getting soft as I get older and I feel like I haven’t done a very good job defensively this year.”
The Warriors currently rank at the NBA’s worst in points allowed per game standing at a whopping 112.1 points.
Jamal Crawford seemed shocked when he heard the recent coaching decision. “This is the first I’ve heard of it,” Crawford said. “I hope it works…We need to get better.”
