    Heat have a roster full of hungry hustle players that came from the D-League or whatever. While i agree that Kidd isn't a great coach, you can't really judge him so far. As i said, Giannis, at 22 is just too young to really win. RARELY do players at 22 ever win a lot if they are the best player on the team.

    Lebron is one of those players and even he couldn't win more than 50 games until he was 24.

    I don't know. I know who I do NOT want.
    No JVG, Monty Williams, Mark Jackson, Messina, Blatt.
    Jerry Stackhouse from Toronto's G-league would be interesting!
    I dont' follow NCAA so I don't know if there's any good coach.

    Yeah. Firing Mack Jackson Curry's favourite player was not a good idea in the short run, true.
    Kidd did absolutely nothing ever to protect or hide his players fault. On the contrary he always - every single time- blamed them and never admitted he did anything wrong not even when the whole league was laughing at his imaginary 4 point play.

    That's the only way this post makes any sense.

    Wow that’s insane. Here’s to hoping you guys get an at least competent coach.

    The Bucks contemplated firing Jason Kidd after last season because of how disconnected he was with most of the team because of his "old-school approach" to coaching, sources told Jared Zwerling of Sports Illustrated.

    According to Zwerling's sources, Kidd would "play mind games" with some of the players during film sessions and timeouts, talking trash and not comforting players. Zwerling's sources add that along with the lack of communication between Kidd and the players, management also felt that Kidd wanted too much personnel control.

    The Bucks fired Kidd Monday, after three-plus seasons in Milwaukee. He went 139-152 during his time there and reached the playoffs twice, getting bounced in the first round both times.

    It was reported Monday that Giannis Antetokounmpo reached out to Kidd and offered to try and help save his job about 15 minutes before the Bucks notified the coach he would officially be fired. Zwerling also reports that each player and his agent was called and notified of Kidd's firing before Kidd was told.

    Actually you just fked up my sentences and they don’t make any sense now. When ur adding/changing sentences, at least do it so that they actually make sense.

    However, you will prob see that changing the coach won’t change anything. Giannis is simply too young.

    Good job SI. Love it. Kidd is a trash character and a manipulating POS and his dirty laundry of his tenure will be revealed finally.

    And beat Hammon to the punch as first woman head coach! :D

    No it makes perfect sense. Only if as a Rocket fan you want him to demand a trade to here, would that sentence be logical.
    He's too young for what? Making the playoffs? LMAO

    Too young to win consistently. They're currently on a bad streak and i get it. But they will certainly make the playoffs. J.Kidd made the playoffs 2 of his 3 years there with even younger giannis - so your point is invalid.

    And no, i don't want him to lose so he goes to the rockets. how stupid is that idea? He neither fits the system here, nor is he ready for a "win now" team.

    They have the 25th Defence. DUDE. Giannis is too young to win in the East and he can only barely make the playoffs with a team with Bledsoe and Middleton is about the dumbest thing I have seen in quite a while.

    He just is. IDK if youre a bucks fan or whatever but he is just too young. NBA players usually don't start winning until they're like 24-25.
    I will gladly accept that i was wrong if they start winning now that they've fired Kidd. Last reply.

    Win what exactly? A championship? you think that the worst coach of the NBA who can do nothing well and had lost the lockeroom and played his players to the ground and couldn't draw a play on his own was fired because the team wasnt a champion contender? L O L
    Or you have to cross some imaginary abritrary threshold of 25 year old to manage to win 50 games in the crap east against teams like the mighty Pistons, Indiana Philadelphia and Miami?

    Giannis doesn't make other players better and change how the game is played, there I said it.

    He's freaky in regards to his build, but he's got an empty impact.

    Seriously, reminds me of Cousins to a degree. Crazy talent and numbers, just little to no impact. When you watch them, they don't change the game the way a real superstar does.

    Bucks should hire Hubie Brown so that I don't have to listen to him call games.

    Unrelated but what is the plan for Parker once he returns?

    Bucks seem set at the 1-4. What happens to their rotation?
