And you got some idiots in here trying to defend Billy King. He's the idiot that brought Gerald Wallace in and gave away what could've become Harrison Barnes, Andre Drummond, or Damian Lillard. And he also took on Joe Johnson...:aicmon:

I do like that they're thinking outside the box instead of just taking someone else's discarded coach, like Lionel Hollins.

And has anyone here thought that Brian Shaw might not interview well? He's lost out on several jobs after interviewing.

Btw, Patrick Chewing is half retarded. He'll never be a damn head coach.

Nobody's defending Billy King's decisions in regards to the roster. Everyone knows he fukked up with Wallace which then forced his hand for Joe. He did a nice job getting guys like Blatche, Watson, and Evans for the bench, but the Wallace trade and contract is unforgivable.

People are just saying this wasn't his call to make. This was done by Prok and his peoples, so if it doesn't work the Kidd hiring should be on them and not BK.

I can see it now star players retiring and beckmjng coachers right away doc rivers leaves. Garnett retires and becomes coach

If and when KG retires, he'll have an ownership stake in the T'wolves he can have.

As for this hire, high risk. I feel the same way I did when the Warriors hired Mark Jackson fresh out the booth. Not a fan of the hire.


What makes this hire sketchier is the fact that he's looking at Dave Wohl as an assistant. He's the guy that assisted Kurt Rambis to a 32-132 record. If Lawrence Frank is one of the guys I guess that's cool, but it's gotta be awkward to be an assistant on the team you used to coach.

The real coach of the Nets is Deron Williams. Jason Kidd's just gonna be that lifeline that he can talk to and an extra set of technicals in case shyt gets crazy

:pachaha:

:mjpls::leon: I think shaw may need to change the scheme

He has to. Shaw by most accounts is actually a great interviewer. Teams are scared off by his philosophy and the shytty precedent that precedes it.

If I'm Shaw, I lie through my teeth. Just say pick n'roll. Say "motion offense." Just distance yourself from the triangle. Then again, Rambis lied too about that and eventually he got exposed for it.

Brian Shaw should start sellin insurance at this point. Dude seems like he's never gonna get a head coching gig. I don't know about this J.Kidd hire. I hope it works out for him tho. He is a Bay Area cat. I wish him the best. I just don't see him commanding a locker room. He has probably been a teammate of players he is about to coach. How is that gonna work :id:
