Cam Inman: Pneumonia gives Warriors coach Don Nelson good excuse to walk away

WARRIORS COACH Don Nelson is sick.

 

Pneumonia, they say. Nothing funny about that. Nothing too surprising, either.

 

Nellie is 69, and his latest health scare will keep him from coaching the Warriors for at least the next two games. How about forever?

 

Retiring now would make for an understandable and graceful exit. No deceit needed. No lawsuits. No more sighs at a roster that gets younger while he gets ornerier.

 

Retiring would be for Nelson's own good — as well as the Warriors' — after experiencing lots of lows and occasional highs during his two tenures as coach.

 

One problem: Nelson likely does not to want to quit.
