Jason Kidd is in the news for all the wrong reasons: Lawrence Frank spat | $50,000 Spillgate | Nets 6-14 start (as of December 9th).
Easy for people to say they saw the Jason Kidd & Nets train wreck, before it happened ... How does that saying go? Hindsight is 20/20 vision.
But what I want to know is, How could key people - Nets front office, Jason Kidd himself - have missed what was so apparent to various "sources"?
The thing is, it's tough to be an NBA head coach. It requires a different set of skills, motivation and discipline than those of a player, and it takes a lot of time to develop all of these. Obviously, Jason Kidd doesn't have that luxury of time, but I did pick up clues that he's able to learn and willing to adjust on the fly.
Who knows, the Nets front office may be spot-on: Maybe Kidd does the have the potential to become a good NBA head coach.
Thank you for reading, and let me know what you think!
