Kidd to Bucks, Nets seeking new coach
Failed Bid for Power, Dollars Lands Franchise Legend in Milwaukee
Jason Kidd missed the last 17 shots of his surefire Hall of Fame career on the court.
His final, desperation heave for more power – and likely a significant boost in pay – following his first year as the Nets’ head coach sent him from Brooklyn to Milwaukee in less than 48 hours.
”Jason is a determined leader, a tough-minded competitor and a great teammate,” Bucks owners Wesley Edens and Marc Lasry said in a joint statement after announcing that Kidd would be their new leader for the foreseeable future Tuesday morning.
