I don't want Avery Johnson to coach this team

[NJNetz]

I'm serious. Find someone else. Anybody else.

Did you see him on ESPN last night? He kept saying New Jersey is the best place for LeBron. Ulterior motives?

what's wrong with Avery?

 

[NJNetz]

Well for one, he's an absolute control freak.

 

[Mr. J]

I always thought Avery was a pretty solid coach. He took Dallas to their first NBA Finals, even though they missed a perfect opportunity to win. He's probably the best candidate available now.

That's exactly what the Nets need.

4 years ago I predicted he would have a HOF coaching credential by the time he was done.....not looking too hot but there is still time

Maybe Jeff Van Gundy is still avalible ? I like this guy as a commentator - knows the game inside out and can be sarcastic. Although I don't know about his coaching.

what are the alternatives?
