Nah cause if you look at how good the Hawks are right now, its clear that he would have been the 3rd most important player on that team. He was the 3rd wheel on a 2nd round at best squad and the Nets paid max money for the worst deal in the NBA right now. No slander for Joe Cool isn't valid.

Not a good look for D Will. That's the 2nd coach he got fired. I really thought Avery was a good fit for that team

Stan Van Gundy has no interest in Brooklyn job
Bill Simmons @BillSimmons
Rude awakening coming for Deron Williams. Always played in tiny markets, now he's an overpaid, underachieving coach-killer in NYC? Yikes.
Media loves to build you up and tear you down lol

Spot on, I've felt that way for about two years now. I'm just saying the way some people talk about him, they make him out to be Keith Bogans.
He's productive, just vastly overpaid.

The Hawks should be slandered, not Joe Johnson. What person in their right mind wouldn't take that money and run? And due to that contract, he's receiving the criticism Rick Sund should be battered with.

Just out of curiousity I checked salaries and Joe Johnson will be making $25 million in 15-16.

Mike Brown? But Avery was also fastest coach to 100 wins and the coach who taught Dirk how to play not like a pansy, which eveyrone and especially Dirk himself and Dallas fans were resistant to at the time, which helped the mavs win a title 2 yrs later.
And Deron Williams coach in Turkey was not retained either. Don't know if you want to pin that one on him though, but fits the trendy narrrative.

I'll say it again, they should've never hired Avery or King. There were better coaches and GMs out there at the time.
That was mostly delusional Knicks haters. Silly fools. I laughed then and I can't help but laugh now. Bucks got a better record than them
