Warriors president Robert Rowell says that coach Don Nelson's job is safe.

"I haven't had one discussion about that at all," Rowell said in an interview with ESPN The Magazine. "It hasn't even crossed my mind. He just signed a two-year extension and I expect him to be our coach for the next two years."

A report last week claimed that Nelson was on his way out in Golden State.

The coach has clashed with guard Monta Ellis and forward Stephen Jackson, who the team traded on Monday, this season.

"We've got a little hiccup here," Rowell said, "but I don't think we're taking a step back."
