Sometime here, he'll pass Lenny Wilkens for all-time wins for a NBA coach.

As of now, he is 1309-1007 (.565 winning percentage) as a NBA coach and 75-91 in the playoffs and has made 18 trips to the playoffs overall. His deepest run in the NBA playoffs is the conference finals, where he has lost four times - most recently with Dallas in the 02-03 season.

His first season as a head coach was in 76-77, and has missed three seasons since.

So is Don Nelson Hall-of-Fame material?

It'll be a crime if he doesn't get in.

I could make a case that he shouldn't be in the HOF, but yes he'll be in.

I have been studying the laws of society and I cannot find anything to back up your statement.
