Krystkowiak: Hardest Year I've Been Through

PrintIn an interview with the Deseret News in Salt Lake, new University of Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak says he left the Nets because the strain on his family was getting too much to bear.
"I've spent the last nine months on a solo mission," said the nine-year NBA veteran who was named earlier this month. "My family has been in San Diego, while I've been in New Jersey by myself, living off the Skype.
"It's the worst, hardest year I've ever been through. It was great basketball-wise to be able to work with Avery Johnson, but from a personal view, it was as hard as it got and I don't want to be away from the family or disrupt the family. That's part of getting back to college again."
No word on who the Nets might get to replace Krystkowiak, but Johnson has said he will be evaluating personnel, including coaches, in the post-season.

I have to agree.
Boo frickin who. He had a great job, and he’s been an nba coach before he knows the drill. If he doesn’t want it don’t take the job. Now he lands on his feet coaching local college ball so save us the sob story.
"NETS GET DERON WILLIAMS!" Thats a sick joke, wait has nets daily been hacked. Is this real???- First reaction to Deron Williams trade.
Some guys can handle it, some can't.
Should have been prepared for that sacrifice but now maybe we can make an upgrade with the staff.

The title had me worried.
But apparently it does not have to do with the Nets organization. Anyways, Messina.

It was for Sheridan
Thought he had some red meat.
"We're not there yet, but we're going somewhere," Johnson said. "And we're going to Brooklyn. We're not going to contract. We're going to Brooklyn."

"I left my family behind to work with Travis Outlaw"
Avery Johnson can go Outlaw himself.
NETS BASKETBALL…. JUST DEAL WITH IT!

lol
Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov admits clerical error, releases a guy's family from underground dungeon fortress that is shaped like a giant snake with an ox's head and perpetually burrows through the Earth's mantle so as to avoid prosecution from the world's governments and evade the single-celled, yet 4,000-foot-long Colossus worms that lie in wait until the day someone recites the Forgotten Verses, at which point they will devour us all.

I didn't know much about him, but, every time he game an interview, he seemed to know his stuff.
He seemed like a very nice guy too. Good luck in all future endeavors!
LETS GO NETS!
Is it just me or does Larry K look sort of like eLone in that picture?

Has anyone told Avery that it will be Proky, not Avery who will decide who the replacement will be??
Doesn’t sound like Avery accepts the fact that it isn’t his choice.
