Nellie: Warriors Still Open To Trading Jackson
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) ―
Golden State coach Don Nelson said the Warriors are still open to trading Stephen Jackson a day after the disgruntled star's agent made disparaging comments about the coach.
"We're trying to accommodate him," Nelson said. "If we can get a good deal, we'll do it. I said that over a month, month and a half ago."
In an interview late Sunday with ESPN Jackson's agent, Mark Stevens, blamed Nelson for breaking up the Warriors' playoff team from 2007 and questioned his ability to coach.
Nelson declined to discuss Stevens' comments when asked about them before Monday night's home game against Minnesota.
