Someone reported that Lakers would not hire Kidd as HC now because of his past issues with Domestic Violence. (including claims that he hit his wife -- and broke her rib) It might be easier to make Kiodd the HC later if he is already an assistant and they need someone.
Also -- "managing...
Then Lakers should have kept Nance & Clarkson ... and then resign Randle.
But that doesn't look like what they are doing. (or they are changing their mind on the fly -- which is not a great thing) If they offer Randle a large contract as early as they can (without waiting to see what...
The brilliant thing Detrick/Ringer did was to only disclose 2 accounts -- and ensure that only Colangelo was notified. Then when the other 3 accounts immediately changed -- that confirmed it.
I think this gets him fired.
Bring Back Sam.
The entire article is worth a read. The most damaging stuff is disclosing information about specific players.
Every time down the court the player Curry is guarding will set a pick for Lebron and Cavs will try to get a switch. It will be interesting how the Ws respond. After a game or two, the Celtics had to do a 2nd switch when Rozier was stuck on Lebron. It worked OK -- but if the Cavs were...
So you agree the first 7 years of his career that "he wasn't like Bird & Magic -- but didn't make the players around him better" ?
That was what I originally said.
Your recent posts sound different from your earlier one.

That was before people figured out that he made the players...
Stuff like this shows that MJ definitely changed ... it wasn't just perception of him changing.
Michael Jordan’s Transformation Contributed to His Success
Not at all. Phil Jackson's book talked about how MJ did not trust his teammates. (which was apparent during the late 80s) MJ also confirmed this stuff during interviews back in the day. Worse than that -- he would give them crap whenever they screwed up. MJ picked on Horace Grant a lot...
Easy to play that game. If Lebron had Pippen and Rodman and Bulls' players -- he might have made 8 straight.
For the first 7 seasons of Jordan's career -- he was criticized because he "didn't make the players around him better ... not like Magic & Bird did."
Harden didn't "leave" ... he was traded because the Thunder decided they couldn't pay everyone -- so they chose KD, RW, Ibaka.
The previous year, they decided they didn't want to pay another player -- so they traded him to the Celtics for a center. Both of those players won tonight as part...
Can't really be effective with bad hamstring.
I wonder if Paul is thinking about IT sucking it up for Celtics last year -- then getting dumped just before contract was up ?
It is past the trading deadline.
The Cavs could have 7 different rotation players by the time next year starts. It is completely premature to talk about trading Love. He could easily be their best player at start of next year.
