Bucks: :lmao Kidd :lmao Nyets

[Basketballgirl25]

As I Nets fan I will say I was not onboard with hiring him, though through the season I grew to like him as coach(not the best, but first year). I will say I respect the Nets front office a whole lot more for saying go F yourself and talk to the Bucks, the owner isn't rich because he is dumb. If Kidd does leave I heard Nets get a pick, so that's good

They'll drive you to it, Deeps. Them & the children.

True dat . Feelin ya brah. My wife and kids get weekly beatings from me. They open their mouths too much.

Blacks do tend to hate on other blacks more than they do whites. If Kidd is that petty no way he should have been hired from the jump. Last time I checked Fisher not only has 5 rings but was the NBAPA Prez for a good minute...he's likely just a smarter man than Kidd....like Deepy said Kidd is a straight up wife beater....Fisher never been involved in numerous domestic violence and DWI convictions like Kidd...for crying out loud Kidd slapped and threw a french fry at his wife because she decided to sample the fries from one of her kids plate. Dude is insane....

But he gets mad props from me for this just to get an extra time out:

[Findog]

Its doesn't matter what the Nets do until they get rid of Billy King. Dude trades a lottery pick(Lilliard) for Gerald Wallace. Trades for a toxic contract in Joe Johnson. Trades all those picks for Pierce and Garnett. Dude is the worse GM in the business,,,,he makes Fredo and Kupchak look good.

To be fair, his marching orders from management were to improve the team right away, salary cap be damned. The Russian doesn't have patience for a Houston Astros style from the ground up rebuild.

I agree, though, a top 6 pick for Gerald Wallace is ing stupid.

[Clipper Nation]

Why would he burn bridges with a franchise in which he has a lot of ties and history with? I just don't get it.

He quit on the Nyets as a player with the fake migraine, what's quitting on them as a coach to him?

Hey girl, I miss you<3..

What a punk:

Kidd's thirst for more power and money began to escalate with Golden State's and New York's hirings of Steve Kerr and Derek Fisher, respectively, as coaches, league sources said. Kidd was livid they were paid contracts substantially higher than what the Nets paid Kidd as a rookie coach.

"That got him – especially Fisher," one official told Yahoo Sports.

Kidd was hired for three years, $10.5 million, only to be livid over Kerr and Fisher getting four-year deals guaranteeing more than $4 million dollars per season. Lost on Kidd was this: His dicey history made him unappealing as a coach, except with the Nets.

Spurs dodged a bullet not bringing this idiot in way back when.

Despite Kidd's greatness as a Hall of Fame point guard, he had a long career of clashing with front-office executives and coaches, a domestic abuse charge and a DWI guilty plea that left him suspended for his first two games as an NBA head coach. Kidd had little leverage upon his hiring as coach, which is why the Nets refused to overpay him market value.

Kidd's spectacular fail -->

Because they have two quality young players in Greek Freak and Parker while New Jersey has a bunch of old pieces of .

And a noose with a 6 ton stone dragging them into the abyss for the next few years. They aren't going to get better, but why ask for bb ops? One year coach wanting a promotion, lol.

[spurraider21]

Jason Kidd is still a coach killer, even as a head coach

[myhc]

JKidd, professional wife beater, drunk, coach killer, refreshment spiller, a man of many talents. And now failed coup. What's not to love about this "winner"?

[Findog]

Why do the Bucks want to hire this guy? Because he took a talented, veteran team to 44 wins and a 6 seed in a ty conference where half the teams were tanking for Wiggins/Parker? And because he is willing to break the coach's code of not applying to jobs that are not open?

They don't have anything better going on. They're at the bottom. If Kidd doesn't work out, they're still at the bottom.

I think maybe they're looking for a coach that the young guys will respect. I'm not saying I agree with the move, but I think that's their reasoning.

I understand the idea that Drew is replaceable and they inherited him from Kohl. He's not necessarily their guy. But jeez, fire the dude first before searching for his replacement.

Oh well, two s bags coming together...as they say, like attracts like.

"New Milwaukee co-owner Marc Lasry and Kidd are close. Lasry, a billionaire hedge fund manager, once served as Kidd’s financial adviser."

[Franklin]

Bucks would try to persuade him to jump out of retirement and suit up for them as a player, imho.
