And that's the most memorable moment of his coaching career thus far.

Does an average at best (that team was supposed to contend, took him 3 months to get them playing) job with the Nets for 1 season and tries to leverage it into taking over the whole organization :hhh:

The takeover fails, he gets to move to Milwaukee and coach Giannis. Turns out he does suck, and the Bucks tell Woj he's fired before calling him :mjlol:


Now he'll never coach again, and he burned every bridge with the team who retired his number and their fanbase that loved him :ufdup:

They always let us fix the car, drive it across country, and then kick us out to let them park it once it’s close to the destination.
If you’re a coach of a certain demographic, you’re expected to do more with less. But if you’re of another demographic, they make excuses for your failure even with the proper pieces :mjgrin:

How the fukk are you gonna say this nonsense after the shyt, Kidd pulled, in New Jersey; complained about the GM the moment he got there, cried about Fisher and Kerr getting bigger contracts to management, tried to slime his way to taking over basketball operations, so then he could eventually fire most of the Nets' front office (that no Black coach would get away with, let alone get another job elsewhere), and then forced his way to another franchise, a franchise which blindsided a Black coach (Larry Drew) to put Kidd in position.

Larry Drew: Unprofessional how Bucks dumped me for Kidd

Jason Kidd’s exit from the Nets didn’t just leave people stunned in Brooklyn.

Speaking at length for the first time since being fired as Bucks coach and replaced by Kidd, Larry Drew said he was “blindsided” by the events that ousted him from his position after only one season, calling the firing “definitely mystifying.”

While Drew was preparing for June’s draft with the Bucks front office, ownership had begun speaking with Kidd about the position, without his knowledge.

“From their [the owners’] standpoint, there’s no set time for these type of things,” Drew told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “It caught me in a position when I least expected it. But I know how these things work. I don’t have any hard feelings, any grudges against anybody.

“[Owner] Marc [Lasry] called me and I just wished him luck. I’ve got to keep moving forward.”

As the Bucks secretly schemed with Kidd, Drew was blithely going through the motions as coach. Just a day before news broke of Kidd’s machinations, Drew attended the introductory press conference for No. 2 pick Jabari Parker.

“The whole Jabari thing, putting me in that position, I don’t think it was very professional,” Drew said. “I wish it wouldn’t have happened that way, but it did.

“If I had been a new coach, I might have reacted differently [to the firing]. But because I’ve been in this so long and I’ve had friends who have had these type things happen to them, I was OK.

“This is the life we choose and sometimes you have to expect the unexpected.”

Drew may have lost his job, but things didn’t work out so bad. He will spend the season on a much better team, having been hired last week by Dave Blatt as an assistant coach for LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Bucks will continue to pay him for the two years that remained on his contract.
Don't you dare use this keyboard militant rhetoric nonsense in argument for Kidd. Don't you dare.

Kidd will get another job.

And he's a good coach as well. This Bucks roster is nowhere near as good as The Coli thinks plus they were done in by constant injuries.
Where? :gucci:

He had a comfy job in Brooklyn and did them dirty. He’s basically Scott Skiles, and I dare anyone here to vouch for Scott Skiles the coach.
