SOURCES: Deron Williams got the #Nets to fire Avery Johnson because Avery offered him coffee with only 1 sugar, not 2. Serious business.

Not Avery Johnson's fault that he has bums on the squad. Blame the GM. #Nets #NBA

Avery was in the last year of his deal. Never on even footing. Tough break after two miserable years in NJ #Nets

Wonder if #deronwilliams will become a literal coach killer if he goes all Sprewell on PJ too? #nba #nets

#Nets firing their coach doesn't change the fact that Deron Williams isn't producing the numbers he should be !

Feel bad for #Nets coach Avery Johnson. Worst firing in any sport all year.

Deron Williams: instead of getting coaches fired, shut your trap, hit the weight room, start balling again #nets

#Nets fire Avery Johnson. Looks like Deron has his second coach head on his wall.

Deron Williams is catching all the blame for this. Ugly situation for the #Nets. It was all good just a few weeks ago...

The #Nets are who we thought they were. They'll be .500ish no matter who coaches them. It's hard not to assume D-Will had a hand in this.

Deron Williams made Jerry Sloan quit. That's all you need to know in the Avery/DWill debate. #Nets

Blaming the bad record on the coach when you spent 300 million dollars on star players #totallakermove #nets

Whole lot of stupid people on the web. Fortunately, most of them can’t even fill out 140 characters with their failed attempts at bumper stickers. But their reflexive siding with an authority figure is nice…. I wonder (not that any of these idiots are old enough) how outraged they were/would have been over Magic’s insisting the Lakers replace Paul Westhead with that assistant coach, Pat What’s-his-name. That was REAL coach killing, and Westhead had just won the NBA championship (it’s always the coach who wins it, the players who lose it to these yokels) 2 years before.
