2007–08 Dallas Mavericks season

The 2007–08 Dallas Mavericks season was their 28th season in the NBA. The Mavericks made the playoffs, but were eliminated in the first round for the second straight season by the New Orleans Hornets. A day later, Avery Johnson was relieved of his duties, finishing with the highest winning percentage for a coach in franchise history and replaced by former NBA Coach of the Year, Rick Carlisle.[1] The Mavericks had the eighth best team offensive rating in the NBA.[2]
