I just want to comment here. How many, coaches are there on a NBA team? I mean, I'm sure it varies team to team, but my point is, I see these benches, they have 15 players, 12 suited, and like 7 assistant coaches. Why have teams been after Kidd, to help mentor their PGs, if they have so many coaches? Apparently he can teach things that all these other coaches can't. So he's basically been an Assistant Coach for the last 3 or so seasons.

Great theory. Since he has never been a coach for even 5 minutes, we have no idea what kind of coach he will be, we only know what kind of player he was. Magic Johgnson was arguably the greatest point guard in the history of the NBA. The guy knew more about facilitating and defending and game planning than most could ever hope to. He was a COMPLETE flop as a head coach.

The Humphries contract should be able to bring them a decent player. They'd be able to get someone really good if Avery and PJ hadn't treated Marshon and Mirza so terribly and tanked their trade values in the process.

Brooks had a great rookie season but ticked some people off. So did Chauncey Billups but he got another chance and look what happened to him. If the Nets didn't want him, they could have at least traded him when teams were interested and gotten something in return.

Teletovic I think will have a better chance to contribute next season, even if Blatche re-signs on an inevitably terrible contract and inevitably regresses into the player he was in Washington.

Poor guy didn't even get a vacation. He is being thrown in the deep end. Everyone in expecting the nets to be big this year. With KG, Paul Pierce, Deron Williams, Joe Johnson and Brook Lopez the Nets are expected to at least challange for the eastern confrence

I must admit, I was completely fooled. I thought, when he hired Lawerance Frank, he was serious about this, and had a lot to offer. With him removing Frank, from the bench, and today, Frank resigned. That shows me all I need to see. The spill, was classic (I found it clever), but the way that team is performing, it shows he needs to go. Maybe he needed more down time, between playing and coaching. Heck, coaching may not even be his thing. I do think Tyrone Lue, will be a good coach someday.

Funny to read thru this post again ;)

"The spill" was so bush league and I'm surprised he didn't get suspended a few games for it.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.
