Jason Kidd: For or Against

[DallasBasketball]

This is such basic math it doesn’t even qualify as analytics. No analytics department would even spend one millisecond considering the win probabilities for deliberately missing a free throw up 3.  In fact, if true, this would be among the stupidest coaching decisions I’ve ever heard of. Please tell me this didn’t really happen.  SMH.  I hope Cuban doesn’t put to much guaranteed money in that contract.

Yeah, pretty wild stuff. 

I think the only consolation is you are also getting a guy who can think quickly in ways of gray areas like when he dribbled the ball along the sideline and purposely ran into that coach to get a foul. 

So now he is our coach and I just hope that the math thing doesn’t cause us to lose any big games. 

He is also known for when he was drafted proclaiming he was hoping he could do a 360 degree turn around to the franchise. Which of course would have ended you right back where you started.
