The Coaching Chronicles: How Brooklyn Nets must break the spell

The Nets once plastered a giant billboard outside of Madison Square Garden that read “Blueprint for Greatness.” Looking back more than a decade later, “Blueprint for Dysfunction” sounds more appropriate.

The Nets fired head coach Jacque Vaughn this past weekend, marking the sixth coach the Nets have fired since moving to Brooklyn in 2012 — five of whom were fired mid-season.

The first era was run by owner Mikhail Prokhorov, his No. 2, Dmitry Razumov and GM Billy King. Now, it’s owner Joe Tsai and GM Sean Marks. Blame can be allotted in a lot of directions, in differing portions.
