Jason Kidd: For or Against

[Scott41theMavs]

Hopefully the Nico/Kidd combo attracts us a star in the next two years. 

Otherwise, Marc Jackson is the only guy I can think of who would have been lower on my list as head coach candidate.  Kidd is the worst kind of person.  Look at what he tried to do to Lawrence Frank in Brooklyn.  In addition, he's been a bad head coach.  Outdated schemes.  Those of you who are analytics fans should hate the hire.

I hope I'm wrong.

I don't see any reason to presume he learned nothing in L.A. If that turns out to be enough to have fixed his X's and O's, great. I personally have a great deal of hope in that. But I'm also hoping that take the assembly of his coaching staff seriously, and also that he has grown as a human being in terms of the locker room issues in Milwaukee. That's a lot to hope for, but overall, I'm very cautiously optimistic.
