The fallout from that drove him to MKE, where he improved the team and the record, but got a reputation as a hard ass (remember midnight practices after an away game loss, over a holiday). A stint on the LALs bench staff seemed to mellow him a bit, so that he was more palatable to Cuban when the DAL HC position suddenly became available.
4 years and 2 WCF + an NBA Finals isn't bad considering the injury armageddon last season (fortuitously) just missed the POs by one game.
Yes! Pierce, KG, and Terry all wanted to kick his ass. He put Larry Sanders in the hospital. I thought he was doing the same here with C.Wood, but it turns out he was actually a POS.
Kidd will become toxic at some point. This dates back to HS. He's been a coach killer since college. The dude can't sustain relationships.
This is all the reason in the world to sell high.
