You just have to respect the guy.

And...it's interesting that he mentions Good to Great....

That book was required reading at a company that I once worked for.

I can honestly say I dislike the Jets, Knicks, Nets, Yankees and Rangers. I cannot imagine this fan base ever supporting the concept of going out and paying big money for either Pierce or KG and then hiring a rookie coach.

Livingstone though, in an environment of let's spend our way to immediate success, is a great story. Landry needs to play against him.

You do realize Kidd was hired weeks before the KG/Pierce trade, right?

Definitely happy for the guy, that injury was just heart wrenching - and many players would have considered that the end of their run

Man, was so sad to see Livingston go down JUST as he was starting to show all the potential and promise. So damn happy to see him back in the NBA, starting and contributing big minutes for the Nets.
