The endless turmoil in Golden State could spell the end for coach Don Nelson.

Nelson is just 21 wins shy of becoming the NBA's winningest coach, but has alienated his players. He got into an altercation with guard Monta Ellis during practice earlier this week and has a disgruntled forward in Stephen Jackson.

A high-level coaching source told Ken Berger of CBS Sports that the Warriors could soon make a change at coach.

"It could happen by next week," the source said.

However, another source added that the decision to fire Nelson could be difficult because he has a lot of pull within the franchise.
