Article was written by a friend of mine who let me listen to a bunch of stuff that ended up on the cutting room floor — on Curry, Joe Lacob, Willie Nelson, et al. Fascinating dude. Plus tons of hilarious photos. I used to resent Nellie for the Webber fiasco (knew it was a two-way street, but Webber was 20), but I warmed up to him during the We Believe season and during Curry's rookie year, in which he was pretty clearly checked out but still had the good sense to take the reins off Steph and let him blow up. And I obviously love to hear that he still wears his Warriors cap and hates Houston.
As long as he's open for interviews, Zach Lowe or someone really needs to do a piece highlighting how much of his Nellieball philosophy which was seen as gimmicky at the time has now become standard basketball practice.
Meanwhile, is there anyone who wouldn't want to while away their golden years the way Nellie is?
