I think AJ is exactly what the bumbling nets need- he will get them good again, then move on

very Larry Brown type of coach

Wow. Imagine that. The year his contract runs out with Cuban, he immediately gets a job.

Yep.

I hope Avery does well. According to the ESPN article DH was pushing to have him coach there. Either way it's a great job to take. New owner willing to spend, tons of cap space, two young players to build around, early draft pick, no where to go but up.

Avery will have a short shelf life wherever he goes.

But the Nets don't need a long-term coach right now, they need someone to kick their behinds for a couple of years, get their record up, and then get a real coach.
