OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Coach Mike Montgomery was dismissed by
the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday, and Don Nelson was ready to
step in.
Golden State will re-hire Nelson, the second-winningest coach in
NBA history and the last coach to lead the downtrodden Warriors to

The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal
hadn't been completed, said the 66-year-old Nelson settled his
differences with Warriors owner Chris Cohan and agreed to return to
the club where he went 277-260 from 1988-95 and led Golden State to
its last playoff appearance in 1994.
