shite, that franchise is still underachieving in that crappy conference.
From 10-21 with a turtles pace slow start this year, to a 34-16 finish (until now). Yeah major underachieving in the last 50 (which crushes the Heat's last 50); 44 wins is incredible given the Nets slow start.
Avery Johnson is just not good. His teams have always gotten worse as his tenure has gone along. He has bad long term infrastructure ability. He's too aggressive and uptight with players. He's a short term/stop gap coach nothing more.
AJ takes over the Mavs for good in 05-06 and they go to NBA Finals, lose to the Heat. Next season 67 wins, lose first round. Next season 51 wins, lose first round. First season with Nets they are 4th in Atlantic division. Next season with Nets they are 5th in Atlantic division. Next season with Nets he's fired after extremely hyped team goes 14-14 to start.
There's just no proof AJ is a long term coach. None. He hasn't sustained success anywhere! Why would you want that?? I get the Karl stuff because he's won a lot of NBA games, but AJ is not an upgrade over Monty. Phil Jackson couldn't have won with the injury affliction Monty has had to go through the past 4 seasons.

That franchise was a mess when Johnson was there and still is. They sold out to gather "talent" for a title run but in reality are no real threat in the East. Poorly assembled teams.
People remember him as the coach who failed with that Nets squad. They forget he was COY and went to the Finals with the Mavs and was once a young, promising coach. He won 72% of his games in Dallas in 3 full seasons and and 37% of his games in 2+ seasons in Jersey. Hardly a track record or proof of "bad long term infrastructure ability"

There is no real proof he's not a long term coach. And he had 3 great years in Dallas.

Never said I did. Im trying to find out why he's repulsive to so many.
