In October 2006, I wrote my first post for Fast Break. Earlier that month, I had settled on the name for this “fan blog” — I had no idea what to make of that concept at the time — because Don Nelson had just been named coach of the Warriors. While the team had an unpredictable mix of talent, I figured the one sure bet for the season would be their speed up and down the court. The name was tied to the team’s style of the moment because, frankly, I had no expectation that the blog would outlast it.
