Well.... Who's gonna write up the plays now? Kidd actually gonna do his job now that Lawrence Frank is "reassigned"? The Brooklyn Nets have just gone from bad to worse. When you thought Dwayne Casey is horrible, makes you feel grateful that he's our head coach rather than Jason Kidd lol

Well, they have to maintain the mythology of that Joe Johnson Allstar spot.

Didn't do themselves any good by naming Lowry player of the week..

After denying Jason Kidd's demand to oversee basketball operations, Nets have given Bucks permission to speak to him: http://t.co/vVxb7YxkGn

Apparently there's a really good chance Jason Kidd is coaching Jabari Parker next season.

I highly doubt he'll be coaching Bucks. According to Woj, he already doesn't like the work load, which is why he's adamant in pursuing a front office position.

As for U-Turn back to Nets? Likely too late. "Russians are done with Kidd," one source tells Yahoo. Belief is that King is more forgiving.

Russians put a hit on him.. he's done...

Kidd's ego is.. man.

[enlightenment]

Whats this about getting 2nd round picks from the Bucks over Kidd? How does that make sense??

Sorta like trading for the coach. For example the Clippers gave the Celtics a first round pick as compensation for them letting Doc Rivers go from his contract so he could sign with them.

It just sounds so weird... what stops people trading players for coaches then?

"Ill give you Derozan for the rights of Gregg Popovich!"

Lost in this is violation of coach's code: You don't pursue job belonging to someone else. Humiliating end for Larry Drew. Kidd's shameless.

Rick Carlisle runs coach's association, takes issues seriously. Ultimate coach's coach. You can bet Kidd'll feel disgust within fraternity.
