After dismissal of Avery Johnson
Carlesimo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
A day after dismissing Johnson after just 28 games,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Prokhorov said he won't rush into a coaching search, insisting he wants Carlesimo to have a chance to lead the Brooklyn Nets out of their slump.
The Russian billionaire cut short a vacation to British Columbia to travel to New York,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where he plans to meet Saturday with Carlesimo. But even with big names such as Phil Jackson potentially available and Prokhorov vowing to spend whatever it takes to build a championship team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he said repeatedly that Carlesimo was the head coach.
Prokhorov did say that if the Nets do look for a new coach,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he would be personally involved. is the head coach and if it becomes necessary,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you know who the usual suspects are," Prokhorov told reporters at halftime of the Nets' 97-81 victory over Charlotte.
Johnson led the Nets to an 11-4 start, winning Eastern Conference coach of the month honours for November. But they were just 3-10 in December before Friday, had been blown out of their previous two games,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Prokhorov said the Nets were lacking team spirit.
Still, deciding Johnson would be fired last week means Prokhorov had made up his mind even before the lacklustre Christmas performance at home against Boston that preceded a rout Wednesday in Milwaukee.
"I think we have very talented players but they are capable of much more than what we have seen in the recent weeks," Prokhorov said. "I respect Avery and really I wish him well,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but sometimes chemistry just isn't right. It happens.
"I think the main question is why we were unable to bounce back and to play like champions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he added.
Prokhorov added around $300 million in payroll this summer and has set the expectations high, saying he believes the Nets can reach the Eastern Conference finals. is the head coach and just I think we have a lot of trust in him and really I want him to lead the team," Prokhorov said.
The Nets played with energy under Carlesimo after forward Gerald Wallace had criticized the team following Wednesday's 108-93 loss in Milwaukee in Johnson's last game.
"To me, it's kind of frustrating and sad because that's the first time in my career that a coach's been let go in the middle of the season like that," Wallace said. "But I understand the business part of it. is our coach. This caught me off guard, so I have no clue."
The backcourt duo of Williams and Joe Johnson was supposed to be the team's strength after the Nets revamped the roster this summer as they prepared to move from New Jersey to their new home in Brooklyn.
Joe Johnson, who's averaging 16.9 points and has played well below his expectations,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], was surprised and shocked to hear of Avery Johnson's dismissal. The guard said the players and not Avery Johnson were the root of the Nets' recent struggles.
"It's been a tale of two different months. One month we play pretty good and the next it's not so good," Johnson said.
"Us as players really have to look ourselves in the mirror and really have each other's backs. I don't think we've been having fun for some time," he added. "I don't think it was the coach. It's show and tell. You never know if things are going to work out the way that they're planned,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Johnson said. "I don't have a preference. right now."
Carlesimo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who last coached the Oklahoma City Thunder, wasn't too enthused with how he landed his latest job.
"Obviously,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's the worst day to become a head coach. It's clearly not an ideal situation," Carlesimo said. "But it's the way of the NBA."
Carlesimo - no matter how long he has the job - won't have much time to make changes to a team that has relied on too much 1-on-1 play and whose offensive system was questioned by Williams before he apologized to Avery Johnson.
Practice time will be scarce,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but Carlesimo did say that the coaching staff will look to make things simple and that they are "going to tweak some things."
"The problem we have, the challenge we have short-term is that we have six games in nine days and we're not going to make wholesale changes for sure,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Carlesimo said..
