What's with the Mavs??

I know I don't follow the NBA all that closely but I don't understand how the Dallas Mavericks could fire the coach that turned the franchise around. Avery Johnson help to turn around a franchise that was basically the laughing stock of the NBA before he arrived. He led the team to four straight playoff appearances and one finals appearance that they should have won but lost to the Heat. I understand that the game now is all about winning but how do you fire the guy that helped lead the team to where they are now. I don't get it but I think in the end the Mavs will pay for it.

The reason they fired him was because his playoff record was 23-24. It really doesn't matter how many wins you have in the regular season, if you can't get it done in the playoffs, a change needs to be made.
