Don Nelson made it clear that he was supremely disappointed with the Warriors' performance on Tuesday.
"It looked like the team last year. It made me kind of sick, watching that," Nelson said of the first half, when he spent his timeouts chewing out his players. "It's not good enough. Just not doing much of anything, not remembering what we were doing as a team, not following our game plan, not guarding. I mean, there wasn't hardly anything that they did right. There were so many things for me to correct, I couldn't do it. That's how bad it was."
