    I wouldn’t want Kidd, he doesn’t seem like a very good coach at all. The Bucks have a lot of talent, they should be better than an 8th seed .500 team in the east.

    Kidd would be Scott Redux...

    Sheesh can't even trust LFR any more. Has sold out because he went full time. In the FO's back pocket. Fake news.

    The G-damned record isn't over. WTF. And you're a December schedule / multiple injuries denier.

    Also, I'm sure it's already been talked about but sucks to hear that Serena is leaving us for Portland. Luke is always classy

    Almost as tragic as not being able to keep Spiro. But I don't hate Joel.

    The Bucks are vastly underperforming at .500 with Giannis on their team. The Lakers don't have anyone even close to as good as Giannis right now and are playing .300 ball. That's about right.

    he has more talent to work with there, and they haven't made progress. I look at that team and their record, and ask myself what the heck?

    they needed to make a change to get to the next level most likely.

    we could offer our entire roster for giannis and get turned down. kidd's not a good coach. had he not left bkn, they'd have canned him. look what atkinson's doing with even less than kidd had there.

    Clarkson is playing off the ball but he makes some nice decisions, especially to Randle when he penetrates and dishes.

    Agreed. DO NOT WANT!!

    Luke's having some growing pains but I'd much rather have him than Kidd.

    This is great and I'm thrilled that LFR will be doing this kind of series going forward. This first one is short and sweet, but looking forward to the next ones.

    Placing Ingram on Irving defensively slowed the bleeding. Caruso, Ennis, Pope were all being eaten alive. I did not see Clarkson or Hart at all on Irving but should have been tried.

    Lock the team in the gym until everyone makes 1000 free throws.
