All it took was for it to actually happen. Mocking people all along the way prior to that, including within the last week.

Glad we can all move on from this though.


I'll continue to mock the absurd. The conspiracy theories.

This week it was:

"Giannis is resting vs Philly because the owners took a jab at The Process in the offseason and if the Bucks lose with a full roster the owners will look stupid, and it also gives Kidd another built-in excuse..."

Turns out there is actually a plan in place to periodically rest Giannis' knee. And Kidd was fired.

Well i don't give a **** if Giannis likes Jason, he liked MCW too so what?Not our fault if his friends are bad in their jobs, phone, facebook, insragram, twitter, they can chat there if he likes.

He is young, he knows nothing so no, he can't take basketball decisions yet.

that would be worrisome, if Fizdale had ever been a coach of the Mavs

Ok seriously WTF is wrong with some of you chitting on Giannis left and right, why is it wrong for him to like someone?

Not only that but ive seen people chitting on him for not being at the bench when he is resting? WTF?

So calm down with all the Giannis dram already, its overly exaggerated, what did you expected him to say to kidd, FK off?

Nah. Too many challenges. It's completely understandable to give Prunty the reins. Just my opinion, but doing a full-on switch has too many complications. A HC needs his own assistants. In-season is just patently not an ideal time for such a thing. Getting Kidd out the door is the most important thing. The Bucks will have a line of HC candidates wanting to coach w/ a Giannis in their midst.


Yep. Candidates who would be looking at the position are making their calls for their staff, plotting out there plan for success, etc.

Any Dunc'd on Podcast fans here? They did a pod ranking all 30 coaches and Kidd got fired the exact minute they started recording, started talking about Kidd at #30 and boom lol.

Pretty fitting considering they were one of the few relatively bigger non-Bucks media people ripping on Kidd early on.

That was a good pod today. Nate ripped into Kidd for hanging Giannis out to dry by relaying things to Ramona.

Agreed. No harm in Giannis saving face here , im sure Kidd actually had a positive effect on him outside of bball believe it or not

Jeebeezus, that was an utterly tactless no-class act by Kidd. Not **** in your old bed is one of the basic HR and just common sense commandments; along with not dragging one of your loyal supporters into that mess. Kidd can think whatever he likes, but at least have the strength of character to keep that to himself.

Are we just reading between the lines with Brogdon or has something been reported. I get the "great coaches" comment but he could have misspoke and was just trying to publicly support Prunty and the coaching staff as a whole as it was a rough week.

Just look at the way he left Brooklyn and pretty much every stop in his NBA playing career. We all knew this had a 99% likelihood of ending up an ugly divorce with Kidd burning bridges on his way out. You just hoped that there would have been some team success along the way, but instead of Larry Brown, we got Larry K.

That's what I want to know. He's just saying this but not going into any detail. "Hey everybody, I've got behind the scenes sources and know what really happened, but you don't get to know what I know cause I'm the big unit. How we lookin?"
