avery coming to SA as an assistant, count on it

Let me guess, Kurt Thomas told you so. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Sucks to hear about Avery, as I liked the guy, but he will do wonders for many teams. I am just glad he is out of dallas.

jw tho, why would he take a step down?

yea SA has the best chnce of any to win the title, but why do it as an assistant coach?

those games are somewhat impotant...arent many coaches that can win at such a high clip, even in the Western Conf., agreed that the Playoffs are more important, but still, it's not like Avery is inept and unable to coach good talent.
your opinion on Rasheed is interesting....Rasheed is one of the most talented players at his position in the game, his versatility, ability and toughness are hard to match when he's on his game and his head is in there, he's the backbone of the Pistons...

somewhat important....yes, but lets not forget about last year when the Warriors barely made the playoffs and took themselves to playing the Utah Jazz close in Round 2

but it takes a coach to get his team up in the playoffs bc that bar is raised by every team..... Mavs year after year have yet to do this. And I do think Avery is a good coach, just lacks experience(shown by the Kidd trade) and will make a good coach for another team

and as far as the Wallace comment, I do find him a good player, I just think he is very over hyped, and isnt consistent which to me is important... Hes a baby and will be dominated outrageously by Dwight Howard....no doubt about it

well I wont concur on the Sheed/Howard statement, but I only hope you are right...not that I dont have faith in my man Dwight, but Detroit is tough, and they will run that 3 headed monster at the 4-5 similar to Chicago in the hay-day vs. Shaq and the Magic...

How many times have the mavs been to the finals?

How many times did the mavs have the best record in the nba?

I don't think Avery wanted the trade.

true....ofcourse the Pistons arent there yet....Although there is a strong chance that they are

yea that sucked...man Z fouled the crap out of Songalia on that play...everyone is talking about the main play and focusing on LBJ, if you look at Z he drilled Songalia in the mug...haha it looked bad...maybe some retribution for the hard foul on LBJ...
