LOL!!!! Check this quote out about tonight's game: "Maybe the worst thing tonight was the defense, though don’t sleep on the terrible play of Malik Allen. For the fourth game in a row Dallas gave up over a hundred points. With 7:49 remaining in the 2nd quarter Houston was shooting 68%. I don’t even know what to say about that, 68%. Just as troubling was for the millionth game in a row the other team’s best player completely dominated the game and made any Mav that tried to play defense against him look like a jackass. Tracy McGrady went for 31 points and 9 assists. Too bad the Rockets can’t start the playoffs in round 2 isn’t it Tracy. Combine his totals with Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Tim Duncan and they have stat line something like 682 points, 453 rebounds, 22,000 assists." He is so filled with anger at the fact that T-Mac raped the whole Mavs squad that he played the "analyst" card and referred to Mac's 0-6 playoff record!!! I love seeing Mavs fans pissed off at the fact that they couldn't stop our winning streak on their own home floor!!!! LOVING IT BABY!!!!
Avery Johnson Wanted to Trade Dirk http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2008/02/19/avery-johnson-wanted-to-trade-dirk/
I knew this would happen. I think Avery can coach. But I won't defend him right now its too early in the morning. But like I said, saw this coming.
the little general didn't sound all that bright everytime they put his timeout huddles on mic last nite.....sounded more like a pesky disgruntled cheerleader than a head coach.....yelling and gestering like a banana starved macaque...
Avery Johnson is a joke. The figurehead of the Mavs. The real power behind the throne...Del Harris. Oh and he's gone btw.
I thought much the same thing. I tell stuff like that to 4th and 5th graders. NBA players don't need to be told... "Okay we need to get a stop here"

Definition of a hater...and I'm not the biggest T-Mac fan to ever live. T-Mac hasn't made it out of the first round yet, but he doesn't have performance anxiety like Dirk. Dirk shrunk 6-8 inches in the finals against the Heat and shot the ball like Mookie Blaylock. Maybe T-Mac hasn't given enough in the playoffs, but Dirk...that guy just plays Ostrich.
loved when avery got interviewed afte rthe half time. tnt interviewer: your back court is getting torched. what are you going to do different?
I know I shouldn't take pleasure in others pain, but I do. I take a great deal of pleasure in seeing Mavs fans suffer. I loved reading this, and the part about blacking out the one time the Mavs have ever been to the Finals - BEAUTIFUL! Now if we can just knock them out of the playoffs, I'll be completely satisfied.
Since Fratello was being so candid Avery Johnson should have followed suit. "Well ya, they traded away my best defender"
This is a fantastic thread. It mentions something that the media isn't saying but rational people should be thinking. Avery's job is not safe. But then we get a "banana starved macaque" blast, a mention of Fratello's "your backcourt is getting torched" comment and more fuel on the fire that is Avery wanting to get rid of Dirk.
Cuz thats not on AJ. The won nearly 70 games after an 0-4 start. Thats coaching. They choke because their best player doesn't have it.
By the way, does anyone know any links to a good Mavs board? I actually would like to read the Mavs board and the Spurs board. The Mavs because I'm enjoying watching this franchise implode, and the Spurs because I wonder if the fans on that site bring up the Scola trade like we do the Rudy Gay trade.
Earlier in the year when San Antonio was going through the motions, Spurs fans were calling for Popovich to step down. That's how r****ded and reactionary fans can be.
I've actually been predicting for a month now on a Nugs board that the Mavs would fire Avery and the Nugs need to try to grab him this summer before Kiki & the Knicks do.
