Gee, Jason Kidd is a **** person. What a revelation.

Are we waiting to see if Thanasty gets an offer with more PT attached? Otherwise sign the man to a min deal and lets get on with it.

The NBA roster stands at 15:

1. Giannis
2. Khris
3. Jrue
4. Brook
5. Donte
6. Pat
7. Bobby
8. Grayson
9. George Hill
10. Hood
11. Semi
12. Nwora
13. Mamadi
14. Bryant
15. Kalaitzakis

Hollinger is referring to GK as our 14th contract and a tax saver, which implies that we're either cutting two guys to sign Thanasis or we're cutting one and not signing Thanasis. At any rate, seems like apart from that decision and the 2nd 2-way, we're done.

**** Jason Kidd


I can't remember if it was the Giannis thread or somewhere else, but I think it goes back to what (I think) I said back then: Kidd reminds me of my old high school/AAU coach in the fact that he had his view of how to coach players and was just incapable of adapting to different types of players. For some players, like Giannis, that kind of coaching can fuel you to reach new heights or get you out of your comfort zone in a productive way. For others, it's at best an ineffective method and at worst a negative and destructive method. I think the most important part of being a coach is learning how to get through to people of all types. Kidd seems to have not had that ability at least back in the Brooklyn and Milwaukee days.

We're only into Mamadi and Bryant for a combined 100k guaranteed until 12/15. I don't expect both to be back.

Be interesting to see what we decide to do and I'm sure Giannis will be in on the decision making. I'd say releasing Bryant for Thanasis is no big deal, but letting Mamadi go isn't so easy.

Interestingly enough, that game was the last one Larry Sanders ever played in for the Bucks. **** Jason Kidd indeed. VooDoo was on his **** from the start.

Whatever happens with thanasis will be decided by giannis and thanasis. Nothing including what he makes is in our hands and no matter what they will be fine with the outcome.

That's the sense I have anyway

It's fitting that Lasry will get a huge luxury tax bill from Larry Sanders dead money because he made the terrible decision to hire Jason Kidd. Sanders never played another game for the Bucks after Kidd sent him to the hospital.

I wish Sanders would have filed criminal charges.

Yeah man I don't know if I've ever hated a sports figure like I did Kidd. A true pile of **** scum bag human-being. Hated that hire from the jump. Him roaming the sidelines made it hard for me to fully enjoy the games. The day he got fired felt like I had just won the lottery.

Is anybody else bothered that we didn't keep the tax-MLE open for Schroder?

I think most people would’ve preferred him over hill especially for one year instead of two but you can’t wait around forever, especially for a weirdo like him.
