Congratulations to Doug Moe from around the NBA
"From his fast-paced offensive teams to his quick wit with the media and the public, Doug Moe is one of the great characters in the history of our league. Over the course of his 20-year professional career, Doug served as a pioneer when he played in the ABA and then developed into one of the NBA's greatest coaches. His coaching style is one I always respected and enjoyed and one that the fans in Denver remember fondly for the excitement it brought to the Nuggets. I want to wish Doug the best on this special night and although it's against his style, ask him to slow down and appreciate the moment that he richly deserves."
“Doug, I am happy for you. Nobody deserves it more than you do. I can’t wait to see you! I am glad you have a job, finally.”
“I will never forget the first time I met Doug. It was in the fall of 1972. He, Larry Brown and Dean Smith were walking toward Granville Towers in Chapel Hill, N.C. I was a freshman, on my way to class, when Coach Smith introduced them both to me for the first time. Larry was very polite and wished me well. Doug looked at me, then at Coach Smith and said, “So El Dino, can this young stiff play?” That was the first time I met Doug. Needless to say, that was the first of many unique “Doug Moe greetings.”
"Doug, congratulations to you and your family. You are clearly one of the NBA’s 'priceless gems.' I hope to see you soon, especially on the golf course!”
“Congratulations Doug. We always knew if you hung around long enough that accolades would come your way. We always knew you were giving the ball to Alex (English) at the end of the game.”
