Avery’s gotta go, yes. He needs to go pay some dues as an assistant. I truly never thought it possible to see such egregious mismanagement of a roster from an NBA coach. Why the hell are we paying Tryonn Lue, when Avery is obviously determined to make Jason Terry a point guard?

Fire him, but only on principle, because it won’t be enough to “save” this franchise (again). Mark Cuban lost Steve Nash, pushed Don Nelson away, and summarily executed the great hope this franchise once had. It’s all on him.

Avery Johnson must go. He made Mavs an old, slow team with no heart, no passion, no team spirit and no pride. He completely and successfully destroyed Mavs.

This corn pone eating, pimp ring wearing mush mouth couldn’t coach himself to take a whiz without sticking his foot in the toilet and letting it drizzle down his leg. Put him and the team out of their misery.FIRE THE BUM and let Dirk coach!!! This is Nelson’s revenge.

Maybe I’m just a hopeful Mavs fan, but I just got on the bandwagon to rid Avery. Cuban, and the players are just as much to blame for the disastrous landslide the Mavs have been on for the past 2 months. Cuban was a dumbass for being so persistent to trade away your future for Jason Kidd and a pair of scrubs. As far as the players are concerned, we just straight get outhustled to every loose ball, every rebound, every play. We probably have the least hustle/fire under our ass out of every other team in the playoffs. Sure, we might have some scrubby players, but so do all of the other teams, and they still manage to get the job done. Now to Avery, why does Brandon Bass not start? Why does Malik Allen, Antoine Wright, Devean George, Juwan Howard, you know the rest, ever see the hardwood? Tell me this Mavs team couldn’t win under a coach like Popovich or Jackson. The Spurs are the most boring team in the NBA and towards the bottom of the Western playoff teams as far as talent goes, and they still win championships. It would be nice to have some first round picks coming up, but wait, we traded those for Kidd. I say get rid of everyone except Dirk and Bass, and maybe Terry if he’ll return to his old form after Avery goes because clearly, he’s been misprogrammed. I’d dump Josh Howard. He only plays the first 12 minutes anyways. Poop!

I think I had already said this before but I’m starting to think that it might be a good thing for us to get swept… that’ll maybe wake Cuban up and finally get him to get a real coach… It’s obvious this series is over anyways…

I agree that Avery must go! But this is as talented of a team as Mavs seem to think. We are old and unathletic. The back side of that bench is a joke (E.Jones, Ju.Howard, Lue, George, Magloire) and it was all Avery’s doing. He likes old untalented guys like he was at the end of his career. We have a long way to go to rebuild this roster.

Cuban needs to straight up fire Avery TONIGHT. This is ridiculous. The Hornets are now just toying around and embarrassing the hell out of the Mavs. Avery has completely lost this team and has completely lost any ability to coach. What pisses me off the most is that no matter how bad the Mavs get beat due to Avery’s coaching incompetence, he will NEVER take the blame or admit personal fault for not putting them in the best position to win. Just plain selfish. I’m sick of seeing him on the Mavs sideline.

FIRE AVERY TONIGHT

Looking ahead to next season(we are not coming back in this game, nor in this series)…

Avery needs to go. There is too much talent on this team for them to be trailing by 22 against ANY team in the NBA… it’s ridiculous. Cuban and Nellie Jr. also HAVE TO pick up another scorer in the offseason… tonight’s performance is just inexcusable. What happened to you, Josh Howard? Are you still there?

Why SOOOOOOOOOOOO many lineup changes all the time? Who are your top 5 guys Avery?

The guy changes the lineup at halftime. Then Devean George – not good enough to play over eddie jones in the first half – is in the game in the third.

How is George supposed to get into the flow of the game if he rides pine the whole first half?

Avery, get your sh*t together. Figure out who your best guys are and play them. This experimentation BS is getting old.

Fire Avery
