Don Nelson’s Poker Party @meschery.bsky.social · 09/08/2026RIP Don Nelson. He changed basketball. As the driving force behind RUN TMC and the We Believe Warriors (probably the two most exciting teams to ever play and not win a chip), he is a legend to any Bay Area sports fan. Those teams brought us so much joy. Condolences to his friends and loved ones.nytimes.comDon Nelson, 5-time NBA champion and pioneer of 'Nellie Ball,' dies at 86 020
