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

What did I say that was wrong? You think this is the proper way to conduct business?

You think its proper to make assumptions without knowing all the facts?

we're fans we never know all the facts. We talk about situations given the best information we have. If we only talked about this when we had all the facts u mine as well shut the forum down

Then if youre going to make assumptions entertain all possibilities. Not just the extreme negative ones.

Y'all babies. I'd let Kidd beat my wife it gets Drew out of here.

That is one lucky lady you have there

Its no coincidence that the very same posters who told everyone this team was headed to Seattle numerous times are the same ones being nothing but negative... All the time.

It's been what 6 weeks now that L&E have taken the reigns and before all the facts are even out they're being compared to Herb Kohl. As much as I absolutely love this board, I can only take so much of it because the amount of pessimism and negativity gives me a migraine.

I've learned in life to stop assuming I know everything before the dust settles because I always looked like an ass when I was way off. I choose to be optimistic but feel free to be pessimistic if you so choose.

That is not what they are saying at all. They are saying that L&E are doing the same things that we got on Herb Kohl about, and are asking for some consistency in their assessments.

But they don't know for a fact that's what is happening... Have you talked to Marc or Wes? Have they? All I'm saying is wait until all the facts are out. If the facts turn out to be they did act like Kohl then by all means say that, but we simply are going off of assumptions and personal conclusions.

Give me a positive baby, tell me how that glass is half full at this point......spin it it, I so want to hear.

Not saying it will happen, but I would never forgive the owners if we had to sacrifice a pick because they tampered.

I posted last night that my hypothesis was that Lasry and Kidd conspired to find a way to use the power grab strategy in BKN knowing full well it would piss off management and they'd be done with Kidd, releasing him from his remaining 3 year contract. It seemed far too convenient that Kidd would throw a hissy fit and then, allegedly in the same conversation, ask for permission to speak with the Bucks.

This reeked of tampering and I too will be furious if this jeopardizes a 1st round pick when we need every one we can possibly obtain.

if this is the case, I think(hope) we get a slap on the wrist because the "new owners"

I just don't see a tampering case

Sources said Bucks co-owners Marc Lasry and Wes Edens met with Kidd Friday in New York City after asking for and receiving permission to talk to Kidd a few days before last Thursday's NBA draft.

[FlagsFlyForever]

Wait a second, didn't Gery say Kidd had been offered the team president position? Quite the Buck's insider that guy.

Why do we keep talking about this guy? The only time he's brought up is when people talk about how he's wrong on his predictions.

if that's the case then the bucks are fine. I was under the impression that the Nets granted permission on Friday and that time line seemed fishy.

I thought Kidd reached out to the Bucks after things fell apart with the Nets, and then the Nets granted permission to talk to him. Where are the tampering charges coming from? I think there was one person that speculated Kidd made this power play with the Nets because he thought he had a similar position lined up with the Bucks, which might make sense if the Bucks were trying to hire him as POBO, but they aren't. I think it's a long shot at best if tampering charges can be proved against the Bucks, if tampering even exists in the first place.

Oh snap, I totally glossed over the fact that we had permission prior to Thursday.

You know who thinks this situation is "messy" people who live in the bubble of the internet.

lol wow. I can guarantee you my employer a fortune 500 company wouldn't do this. This entire front office set up has been sloppy and half assed to say the least

Wouldn't do what?

[MetroDrugUnit]

Gery's held up in his mom's basement (His Personal Residence) waiting for this to break so he can come out tomorrow morning on WSSP and say he knew all about this.

[Ayt]

Really? You see it that way? From everything I have read, I have not seen one positive comment from the national media about the Bucks in this fiasco, not to mention the possibility of a tampering charge.

But that's also because you're the biggest pessimist in the history of the board and only seem to post negative comments.

What was improper about it?

if thats the case it seems like the new york media are acting like jealous ex's

[[MIKE C]]

On the surface it seems like a mess the way Lasry and Edens are pulling things together, but I'm not too concerned about it at this early stage. They have only been on the job for a couple months. I think they always kind of viewed this first year as an evaluation period. I think they were planning to take their time to find the right guy for POBO, and then that hire would probably take his time evaluating the pieces in place before making his moves. Until then I think they are fitting pieces together as they go. I think the Kidd thing just came up so they grabbed the opportunity to bring in what they felt was a better coach.

[bigkurty]

So Kidd knew he had another job lined up that was probably willing to give him a pay raise and he decided to go back to his current employer to see if they would counter. He probably also decided to ask for the promotion too. This is not uncommon at all and is definitely not tampering if that's the case. Kidd is stuck in the contract so he has the most motivation to try and get fired. Why would the Bucks risk all of this anyway? It doesn't make sense on the Bucks side.

Yeah I don't think there's any way they can prove it. But a lot of pieces point to Kidd making his move knowing he had Milwaukee in his back pocket.
