I don’t believe a word coming out of this douchebag’s mouth. That is all
He is friends with a bunch of the Knicks front office. And talks to Dolan too.
It’s likely true.

Re: Official Knicks Coaching Search Thread
Early Impressions on Jason Kidd’s Offense:
Horns Heavy: Kidd leans on Horns sets as a base, multiple actions are ran out of the formation to generate movement and options.
Utilizing Movement Shooters: He’s shown the ability to incorporate players like Klay Thompson effectively through off-ball motion, pin-downs, and ball-screens
Familiarity with Double-big Lineups: Has experience deploying and using two-big lineups
Thibodeau-Like Concepts: Some of his sets resemble those of Tom Thibodeau, though often with different entry points or initiations
Play-calling Inconsistencies: When working with a high-usage ball-handler, Kidd tends to lose rhythm in set play-calling. He’s more effective in calling plays when the offense runs through multiple players. Ex. Ran a lot of offense with Anthony Davis compared to Kyrie Irving led teams
Limited ATO and Special (SLOB/BLOB) Creativity: His after-timeout (ATO) and sideline/baseline out-of-bounds (SLOB/BLOB) plays lack creativity compared to Thibodeau’s sets. The Mavericks ranked just 25th in ATO PPP last season (1.05).
There’s a lot more to unpack with Jason Kidd, this just scratches the surface. If he ends up becoming the coach, we can dive deeper into his tendencies, strengths, areas of concern, his fit with the current roster, and possible rotation pattern

If he’s right then BKE was right… and Windy as well… and lots of people were wrong… and that means we’re exploring Mikal and OG for Giannis (via BKE)… interesting stuff

Then Giannis asks out and lists NY as one of his preferred destinations. We work a 3-way or 4-way trade where we send KAT (to PHX or NOP or ORL?) and Mikal (to MEM? to SAS? to DET?) to other teams so MIL gets loads of young players and draft picks in return and we are left with a big-three of Giannis, JB, and OG.
I wouldn't put it past Leon/WWW to orchestrate such a scenario.
Orchestrated.
That's some Full Besart right there

Johnnie Bryant was always going to be their choice, and reporters are purposely doing Knicks for Clicks because they can't get the clicks from the Pacers-Thunder Finals.
