Report: Nets eyeing Johnson for coaching job

Basketball Betting Lines

06/09/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Post is reporting that the New Jersey Nets have entered into discussions with Avery Johnson about the team's head coaching vacancy.

Johnson was fired after the Dallas Mavericks' ouster from the first round of the playoffs in 2008 and has been working as an analyst at ESPN since then.

He led the Mavs to a 194-70 record during three-plus regular seasons, but his postseason mark was 23-24, including losses in 12 of their last 15 playoff games.

The Nets were an league-worst 12-70 last season and began the campaign by losing their first 18 games to establish an NBA record for futility.

Head coach Lawrence Frank was fired after the first 17 losses and replaced by general manager Kiki Vandeweghe for the remainder of the season.

Vandeweghe was removed from the position by new owner Mikhail Prokhorov when he officially purchased the team last month.
