Don’t know if this is good news or bad news, but interesting info from Chad Ford on today’s Locked on Mav’s Podcast. Conversation is about Kidd’s past desires to have an oversized input on personnel decisions:
“Kidd has a reputation of not caring about any of that (long term view vs. who helps me win tomorrow night). He gets enamored with certain prospects. He gets enamored, frankly sometimes, you know he’s managed and repped by Excel and other Excel clients. There has been a long history of him pushing for that…(gives example of Kidd pushing for Excel client MCW in Milwaukee). This is something Nico is going to have to have the juice to tell your head coach sometimes ‘no you’re gonna have to play the guys that we give you. You’re gonna have a voice in these matters, but you are not The Voice’”
Summer of Schwartz? Korkmaz to Dallas confirmed? Olynyk?
