In my first year at Dallas my (then 11-year old) son Avery Jr., said, "You know daddy, you're still the best coach in the NBA." I was like, "But I haven't won a playoff game yet." And he said, "That's okay. You're still my daddy." That makes you feel good.”

“I don't have a lot of experience running basketball teams.I'm just trying to get smart enough even to understand everything going on.

If you told me when I bought the team that there were 12 kinds of pick and rolls, I would've told you I have no frickin' clue about that.”
