Kidd: John Welch to run offense, Lawrence Frank on defense 

Post#1 » by Paradise » Fri Jul 12, 2013 3:46 am

"We’re talking this week and I’m trying to share the vision I have, and that’s one of the formulas that we might have — break it down where [Frank] could do defense and John does the offense and I’ll oversee and pipe in on both."

And here is a little info on Welch from a few months ago:

You don't know John Welch. But he's the Nuggets' secret weapon, a workout wizard, an eternal gym rat, George Karl's consigliere.

Paradise,

jj and I must ask that you do not directly link to NetsDaily, ProSportsDaily, any forum or site that collects news from other websites and sources. You may however use those sources when linking.

Also, as long as jj and I are being a bit more strict on rules now, I had to cut down your other article.

Feel free to post a new thread and I'll have this one removed if you'd like.

- Rich

I like the addition a lot but why isn't it officially announced?

Welch for offense.

Frank for defense.

Kidd for PR.

He's a first year HC with 0 experience. This is the way it should be.

Kidd may be in the Larry Bird Coach role, more of a ra-ra guy who delegates the X's and O's to others. I don't have a problem with that.

This type of approach has worked for Mike Brown all these years. Hopefully it works for Coach Kidd as well.
OKC Thunder fan, too.
