Nets hiring Jason Kidd as Head Coach?

I agree it is high risk but I disagree on the no reward move. For all we know Kidd could be a fantastic coach. That's the rub. He is a unknown as fas as coaching.

I believe he can be a great coach but not right away. He could be an assistant for a few years. Was PJ Carlesimo that bad in playoffs to be fired anyway?

He might become a great coach but I agree. How soon he jumped straight to head coach is why I see it as a high risk. His unknown status as a coach is why I do not see it as a no potential reward move.

All current players are like this. See Favors, Hayward, Durant, Rose, Lillard... Also this kind of stuff never happened back in the day. Malone, Magic, Barkley, Rodman...all upstanding perfect members of society.
 
Interesting at least. But I think it's pretty good. He'll need a good staff more than most, so that'll be interesting to see. I like this move more than most of the Brooklyn Nets' other moves.

Why? (honest question) Does Kidd have some coaching background that I am not aware of (entierly possible)?

Ya he was the student manager for his HS team before the coach told him he should try out for the team. Amazing story.
