Avery Johnson.
Which current playoff coach or coaches are likely to get fired after the playoffs?
Avery Johnson.
Avery Johnson.
Poor Avery.
AJ ... Cuban won't support him any second after NO send them out.
lol
if the Suns lose, does Kerr get the axe? I don't think D'antoni would be fired, the organization seems as stubborn about keeping him as he is about not playing defense.
I dont think Avery gets fired even if the Mavs lose. He's a good coach trying to coach a team with about 3 good players and the rest spares.
D'antoni
suns built a team to beat the spurs and failed again
George Karl
I say Avery keeps this job this season, Mavs try to rebuild with better role players and if it doesn't pan out after next season he gets the axe. Also, could be shocking to read during the summer that Mike D gets canned. Hey, it could happen.
if mavs get blown out at home imo he avery is toast
AJ and D'Antoni are probably both out of a job.
Avery Johnson is going to be retired twice this season.
George Karl

Cuban wanted Kidd, he can not blame AJ for this. This trade killed Dallas' chances...they got older and slower and when you play a young quick team with the best point guard, you are doomed to lose.
This is all on Cuban.
Nellie is on the way out.
PJ is probably one and done though.
I heard on ESPN radio yesterday that Cuban told AJ if Dallas doesn't make it to the Finals, then he is gone. If they make it to the Finals and lose, they will negotiate. So basically the only way AJ can be sure of keeping his job is to win it all.
I just can't understand how a guy that was on two teams that proved how important great defense is to winning Championships (Steve Kerr (Bulls/Spurs)) can support such an offensive minded coach.
Sure their style wins games, but not the games that count.
And Sarver is the one who made the decision for Shaq. I don't know about Avery, but D'Ant could get a full season w/ Shaq, but who knows.
D'Ant has been second guessed more than any coach in Suns history.
Mavs are going backwards and I think the team has tuned him out. No surprise. Especially with an owner like Cuban, Avery's gone.
Nellie has stated in the past that it was pretty difficult to work for him and was surprised with himself for working 5 years there.
I think that's the piece of the puzzle we have yet to see. If the Mavs lose 2 at home, and especially if they lose badly, then I think probably AJ is looking elsewhere for a job.
However if they can win at least 1, and come close to another, then I think he may be given one more year to pull it off.
As for D'Antoni. Well, he may be in the same situation. But the Suns probably have to prove something in Phoenix. Otherwise he may be searching the classifieds along with AJ.
