I have been impressed because it feels like Kidd is doing a good job at that. It seems he is taking inputs from his player and his assistants while also patiently observing and experimenting. You aren't left feeling like this is the "Kidd show" and I think that is really, really good.
I also think it is basically a miracle the Mavs are 10-7 at this juncture with the missed games from KP and Luka, the incredibly poor shooting from everyone on open shots, the slow start from Luka (shooting and otherwise), and the introduction of new systems and gameplans. And through all this the team chemistry and camaraderie seems to be in a really, really good spot (maybe the best in a decade). It feels like a pretty masterful coaching job IMO so far.
Hear, Hear!
