Don Nelson did not appear to regret Thursday's confrontation with Monta Ellis when he addressed the media on Friday.

"I disciplined a player in practice, and that?s part of my job description," Nelson told CBSSports.com. "I've done it before and I?ll do it again, and that?s all I?ve got to say about it."

Nelson confirmed that it was Ellis, who received the brunt of the discipline. "Yes, it was Monta," he said. "But I'm not going to go into it. I disciplined the player, it?s over, and that?s all I have to say about it."

When asked if he and Ellis were OK going forward, Nelson said, "You need to talk to Monta about that. I?m OK."

Ellis wasn't available for comment after shootaround.
