    I really hope he doesn't end up on TV. Most annoying voice in sports.

    There was already a thread on this.

    Good riddens, he was an idiot with the system he was running. Pass the ball into Lopez, somehow it ends up going to Gerrald Wallace....instead of running P&R's for D Will and getting him to the hoop.

    Sucks though, nets were a solid fade typically. See how they adjust. At least they waiting till after X-mas

    kinda f'd up, avery is a great coach. had a great start but just wasn't working out, williams had to do something with it. they would rather fire a coach and get a new one then make their star unhappy and him forcing a trade. funny though now d will says he really likes sloan and says he is a much better coach then avery and respects him a lot. said that about a week or two ago.

    Maybe D Will should play up to his $100 million deal instead of getting coaches fired

    Avery being miked up on Christmas Day was the end of his tenure. He was begging the team to play hard. You just can't do that.

    Is it because he's black? Can't see any reasons to fire him.. He's a decent coach.. better than D'antoni..

    No it's that DWill would rather lay blame on coach as opposed to taking responsiblity for his shitty playing

    This is basically correct with some caveats. Black NBA coaches are held to a much higher standard than white NBA coaches (e.g. Doug Collins, Scott Skiles, Lawrence Frank, etc...). Even though blacks make up the majority of the players, the NBA front offices and NBA fans are dominated by white people. Blacks are convenient scapegoats when a team struggles.

    Where is Lawrence Franks pink slip?
