No. He takes Mark Jackson's place at ESPN after MJax is hired by the Cavs to replace Ty Lue next week (he was Lebron's original choice for a Blatt replacement; Lue was the compromise candidate).


Kidd is about as bad as they get with a microphone. No chance of this happening.


Magic Johnson had a talk show.

Kidd's gone, so there is some upside, but who knows what the collaboration will come up with now. If Horst was the best option for GM, anything goes in the search for a new coach.

Chris Mannix is throwing the name of Monty Williams as a possibility

I love how external sources are acknowledging that the Bucks head coach role is a highly sought after job!! You get to coach Giannis! Bring in someone with some passion and creativity, it feels like Kidd took the job for granted.

Ben Thompson - (@NotechBen) made a good point on twitter about Chris Haynes (the one who said Giannis was devastated) being a mouth piece for Kidd. He was the same guy who said the lockerroom was devastated about Payton being released.

He also said he thought Larry Drew was a great coach after he was fired, not buying it

Looking at Prunty's coaching history, he's been an NBA assistant since 2002 and was coach of the UK's men's basketball team. You might as well let him finish out the season and see if a change in leadership will help the product on the floor at all. I don't see much benefit hiring an off the street coach as this juncture until after the season. He can't do any worse than what Kidd has done.

If Kidd wants another job in the NBA he knows he can't say anything

PARTYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, Reggie Miller still has a job with TNT somehow.
