Daryl Morey sought out and found his analytical soul mate in D'Antoni. Expect this one to end terribly for the Rockets. Both will be fired within two years. |

The NBA coaching selections always amaze me. Before long people will be saying that Kidd is better than Thibs... |

One of the Bulls wins was in overtime too. The Bucks improved by 13 games in Kidd's first season and they traded the guy Brandon Knight who was their best player that season. We will see what he does this season. I'm glad that he has a job and has total control. Won't be any excuses now. He also has talent to work with. |

I am sure you will explain that away apart from Kidd, but the record remains. The East was/is brutal and they could not even come close to the playoffs this year. He is a below .500 coach. Thibs impact on the Bulls is even more clear now that he is gone. He will do very well in Minnesota and will continue to be a much better coach than Kidd. |

The East has gotten better. 8th place team in the East has a better record than the 8th place team in the West. We will see how great a coach he is now. The Bulls stuff is over. Don't really want to fight that fight anymore. He has a team and control let's see what he does. If he wins 20 games his supporters are still going to find a way to spin it anyway. |
