It seemed everytime Dallas committed a "hard" foul, it would just rile the opposing team up more and they would go on a run. -Wasn't it YOU pushing Cuban to sign Dampier, who evidently had a great year only because it was the last year of his contract? Greg, although I didn't agree with everything you posted, I visited this site frequently to engage and debate with other fans about the state of our team. Although we all had vastly different opinions, our goals were the same: to see an NBA championship come to Dallas! Thanks for the blog! Avery Johnson,

No, you weren’t the only to blame, BUT…

There is a reason the Suns have not won a championship with him as head coach and that Suns fans are hurting harding than any Mavs fan. It's because his scheme is flawed as much as Avery's, if not more. His offense works for the games against bad teams, and works maybe half the games against good teams, which gives the team he's coaching a good regular season record. But in the playoffs, the scheme is a disaster. D'Antoni has been preaching the same thing for five years there, and in a best of seven series, any team they face will make waste of the same ole song and dance the he has them play. Forget D'Antoni, he's exactly what the team doesn't need. If you thought Avery was predictable, try predicting each playoff game the Mavericks will play in. I'll give you a hint: Not good.
