Should the Bucks hire Jason Kidd (as coach pg 43)?

[JayMKE]

Just straight up crazy overreactions from a bunch of drama queens. Worst than Herb Kohl? Really? Really? We have the same people that think Larry Harris was awesome and were glad to have Ruben Patterson but Jason Kidd is apparently worse than them, Hitler meets Charles Manson.I remember quite a few people wanting Arn Tellum to buy the team, totally not a sleaze. If you can't come up with a better candidate(I'm talking serious here not Bill Simmons) then you don't really have a right to an opinion, you're just talking out your ass because you don't like Jason Kidd for whatever reason. Being a coach is harder than being a POBO imo and Kidd did an alright job at that with a poorly constructed team(wonder why he wanted more power), it's not rocket science. Fans won't care about Jason Kidd's personal life, they'll be excited because Kidd is a HOFer and was championship level player who played the most cerebral position the court. Winnings takes balls right? Well Lasry/Eden/Kidd are the balls, what does that make Hammond?

I voted no and I would vote HELL no if there was the option.

He is unproven and a POS.

But since i'm the guy who always try to see the bright side of things....


All the news we are getting are coming from the nets side. Even woj and etc seems to be getting information from the nets. So maybe the whoooole story isn't being told.

Its seems that kidd wanted a slower more sustainable build in brooklin. Here's a cent for that

Kidd prefered Sanders to his mega injured all star center. So props for him for that.

And there it is, all i can see that's positive in this story. Now i'm going to puke i'll be right back

[stillgotgame]

I don't want this guy near the franchise

One of the worst posts in this forums history.

I hope TJ Kidd joins the board.

I guess we already have a winner for worst post eva.

I remember watching a Dallas Mavericks game where one of their big three, Jackson or Mashburn, I can't remember which, went down with an injury near mid-court. The other team had the ball on offense, but Kidd came up with a steal. Instead of calling a timeout to get his teammate help, he conducted a one-man fast break, dribbling past (or jumping over? can't remember) his injured teammate to score the basket. At the time I thought that was a completely douche-ey thing to do and have never really liked him since. Not necessarily relevant, but perhaps interesting.

My sense of morality when it comes to sports has changed over the years. I no longer expect athletes to be angels, so I suppose I shouldn't expect it of front office personnel either. Kidd's personal demons, flaws and vices don't need to impact his job. However, my concern with him is this: even if he turns out to be a brilliant front office mind, which is of course be no means a sure thing, is it possible for him to be effective given the number of bridges he has reputedly burned around the league? On one hand, Hammond is living proof that being well-liked doesn't make you more likely to be successful in trades. But to be the business face of a franchise and have to try to close deals with enemies you've made in other franchises . . . that seems like a rather large obstacle.

Kidd has had one year as a HC and finished 6th in the EC, which considering his team(not payroll) wasn't a bad finish, but more oh a meh. But he managed in 12 months to piss off his own organization to the point where they're going to trade him.

Sorry if bucks fans want someone with more a resume or a background in the FO.

Also the bucks have to great young assets in Giannis/Parker and some okay young talent Sanders/Henson/Knight/Middleton to go along with new fresh owners. This is a good NBA job and we're going to get Jason Kidd? It has to be a joke.

cool responses guys, real thought up

Yeah, your post was filled with rational thought.

Honestly though, JayMKE's post is a combination of Ann Coulter and Rick Reilly.

Who would be a better hire and what makes Kidd so much worse? He's not a Jabari Parker level saint but not many people are.

[WiscoKing13]

to make this simple nothing Kidd has done in the NBA makes him a serious candidate to over see all aspects of an organization.

It has nothing to do with being a saint and I don't have a name, but Kidd has never done anything like this before and as previously stated his one year working in a suit in the NBA didn't end so well. So how the hell would we trust him with more responsibilities.
