All coaches and players have frustration. This is much ado about nothing.

Parker's agent has to know that it's not a good look to be on non-speaking terms with a head coach, especially as Jabari heads into a crucial period in his career re: his contract

The article denying a rift could easily just be PR

Yeah Jabari is looking to get paid by somebody, what is he supposed to say?
"I'm the kind of guy that doesn't talk to an idiot coach that some of you still really like for some bizarre reason. Now give me $100m."

Even if that's what he's thinking his agent would advice him to swallow it. Kidd is gone anyway, what's the point.

Sure, but the bit about Jabari dealing with him when their "paths crossed" was hillarious. He perhaps limited the weight of his denial using that terminology.

Listening to the guys on TNT about the Kidd situation is a headache. They have no idea what they're talking about.

They all sounded like the uniformed dumbasses they are. I have a feeling Chuck and Kenny would have said otherwise about Kidd.

Oh. My. God. How do you even describe that TNT segment? It's clear which national media members have paid zero attention to the Bucks.

All former players think they can be great coaches/GMs when it's actually closer to about 1%

I know we are comparing apple to oranges but I feel like Leonard and Parker have a personality where they are not the best at handling conflicts and tend to just drift away. I don't see Parker as an overly vocal guy to work our feelings or put it past him and move forward. Still think Kidd sucks, don't worry.

Ex-players always have each other backs. The TNT thing doesn't even surprise me.

The whole thing though is dumb. If this was any other name, and not an ex, HoF player, this wouldn't even be a damn story on the national scene.

Always want the Bucks to get national attention, until they actually do and I realize how **** stupid national NBA media is.

Yup. Honestly, same could be said with local media as well. For instance, I want to hear more Bucks talk on the radio, but then when I get it, it's hot garbage and I turn it off.

Wonder why they chose to get rid of the assistants now?

Does this mean they're prepping to bring in someone sooner than later head coaching wise?
