DALLAS - Head coach Avery Johnson of the Dallas Mavericks wears his NBA Championship ring with the San Antonio Spurs to remind the Mavericks that they have no championships,
this during play with the New Orleans Hornets in Game Four of the Western Conference Quarterfinals during the 2008 NBA Playoffs at the American Airlines Center on April 27, 2008 in Dallas, Texas.

Can you imagine Cuban?

They have plenty of lakes in Dallas.

At least they won't have to travel far.

Shame Dallas couldn't force a game 6. I was hoping they'd win and give Spurs some time to rest

Sometimes I don't like Avery, but then there are other times that I like him. This would be the latter. :lol

Actually, Avery wasn't the only Dallas coach that wore their Spurs Championship Ring.

Avery never appears to take any responsibility for his own coaching mistakes or any of his shortcomings. All the while, he constantly throws his team under the bus during every press conference. It's obvious that they've tuned him out. Seems to me that his tactic was nothing more than a desparate attempt to regain lost credibility with his team.

Priceless! :lol

Lord knows what he was thinking. To wear a ring of a despised team in their eyes is the ultimate in disrespect. Sometimes you wonder where avery comes up with this stuff. He's on the fast track of being dismissed.

I've always thought that about the '99 ring, too. It might be the simplest of the four, but that's what makes it such a nice ring. It's a ring a person could actually get away with wearing. IMO it looks the best on someone's hand...the others are all awesome when blown up and looked at up close, but with the '99 ring you can spot it from 50 feet away and know it's a Spurs championship ring, which is pretty cool.
