NBA: Avery Johnson fired!
wow
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baske...d_N.htm?csp=34 DALLAS (AP) — The Dallas Mavericks have fired coach Avery Johnson. Johnson leaves with an impressive resume after three-plus seasons, but Mavs owner Mark Cuban couldn't tolerate a bottom line of being 3-12 in the playoff since blowing a 2-0 lead in the 2006 NBA finals. The Mavericks followed that disappointment by the embarrassment of being ousted by Golden State in the opening round last season in one of the biggest upsets in league history. They were just dumped in five games by Chris Paul and the New Orleans Hornets. Dallas didn't win a single road game against the Heat, Warriors or Hornets, an 0-9 skid that was too much to overcome. The final slate on Johnson's tenure: 194-70 in the regular season, 23-24 in the playoffs. |

Avery will get another job. The Mavs however will not go anywhere in the playoffs until they decide to play D and quit trying to outshoot everyone.

umm yea it is, when you have a important game 4, and you have the momentem and you put in freaking JJ Berea at point, then you deserve to be fired. And plus hes a control freak and doesnt know how to use J Kidd. He wanted to use half court offense but you cant do that with J kidd. Avery is a good coach, but right now he is not a good fit with the Mavs.

The reality is, when your "guy" is a soft player like Dirk Nowitske, when the playoffs roll around, you have set your team up for failure.

how can you blame this on Dirk, He played great this series, he cant do it by him self. On the other hand you can blame Josh Howard and J kidd, they played horrible and got flat out owned in the series.
