Lakers should definitely go after him for an assistant's spot. This is the kind of thing that Kerr, Pop and Sean McVay would do.

I'm absolutely against having him as a head coach, but if he goes for that assistant's role, it could do wonders for our young talent. Certainly would be a refreshing step up from the idiots that Luke has lined up next to him.


That is a bad idea.


Why is it a bad idea?
I've always heard that he's a good locker room guy. Was one of the best basketball players. Always a team first guy. I agree that he's not a great x's and o's person but we wouldn't hire him for that.

You don’t bring in a veteran coach as an assistant unless Luke asks for it. Going behind his back is a cheap move. I doubt that Luke wants a potential replacement on his staff. But more importantly, Kidd hasn’t been a very good coach, especially defensively. What could he add?

Especially a coach who lobbied for his previous head coaching job while another coach already still had it.

yeah, the vibe i get from Jason... is he'll try to throw Luke under the bus to get his job.

milwaukee also sounds like a garbage name for a city.


Milwaukee is an Algonquain word for beautiful land. And it was pretty swell there by the lake before white people screwed it up. Trump just empowers all the racists doesn't he?

As for greatness, Kareem did lead the Bucks to a championship, so there's that....


Not everyone making fun of a name for sounding funny is a racist.
Or maybe you are right...I didnt know if milwake even ment something bit
I must be a rasict because you know everything.

In before the Lakers should hire Kidd.

I would kill myself if we fired Luke to only hire him or Mark Jackson.

Chris Haynes tweeted that Kidd hasn't been told yet (21 minutes ago). Yet, SC has a tweet saying Woj has been told Kidd was fired (36 minutes ago). Bucks can blame Kidd for piss-poor play all they want, but I don't want to hear talk about organizational disfunction when the Bucks are apparently telling reporters that Jason Kidd has been fired before they actually tell Jason Kidd. Messed up.


You mean like those Sam's Club workers who showed up to work only to see a sign taped to the main entrance telling them their store was closed?


Live footage of Jason Kidd heading to work today

My sides...

But in all seriousness I think he could help Ball who he is frequently compared to. Zo was getting tips from Nash over the summer, and I don't see why Kidd couldn't help him with his game. He doesn't even need a title, just come here and be the guy that hangs out in practice
