I'm out on the 2023-24 season ....

I don't think there's any hope for this team without a coaching change. Honestly, I think the rest is pointless until that happens. They'll probably get hot when the schedule gets easier, but that's fool's gold. They clearly are not a good or even average defensive team. They need a new voice. Luka needs a new voice too. Cuban needs to disappear.

I haven’t been on the board since the summer but had to come back to see what people were saying about the coaching.

The Pacers game really highlighted the lack of coaching this team has. The Pacers b-squad looked more polished than our starters. The ball movement, the moving without the ball, the hustle, the aggression… it was honestly embarrassing.

I was always a Rick apologist, so maybe I’m biased, but he always was able to get more out of the talent he was given. Kidd on the other hand… He seems to be very hands off, creating an environment that star players like, but does little to intercede as he just “watches the game” and waits for the players to “grow up”. I think his approach may be ok for an assistant coach, a role he thrived in with the Lakers. A head coach needs to take more accountability for his team’s success and do everything they can to prepare the team to compete.

Edit: thank you for letting me vent
