1. It's not happening. Nico/Kidd was a package deal. Luka/Kyrie like Kidd.
2. If it happens it is going to be the same kind of "players coach". Pick one of the more popular names from the "coaches fraternity".
There are 2-3 coaches in the league that are allowed to coach. Have more power than star players. Pop, Spoelstra, maybe Kerr. That's it. Even RC knew that Luka was in charge. Unless the Mavs bring in a coach and back him up even if he clashes with the star players it is going to be more of the same.
Remember the Nash/Irving story with the Nets: "I don't really see us having a "head" coach. KD could be a head coach, I could be a head coach (some days)." With the expected outcome. Nash is fired early in the season. Vaughn takes over. In reality KD and Kyrie are running the team. Including play calls and rotations.
