I think they'll run through a wall for Smart."In the long run (Nelson's departure) will be bittersweet, though," Turman said. "The general take - I think Don's years will be remembered as a good time in Warriors history. I just felt it never really matriculated into what it could have been. But in the long term, he'll be seen as a winning coach who led us to some interesting places."The Warriors waited until the last days before the camp to make a major change in the new lacob owners Joe and Peter Guber, who bought the club for a record $ 450 million in July Chris Cohan, long reviled owner who is accused by Bay Area fans for the franchise of absence from the playoffs in 15 of the last 16 seasons.
