    What makes you think they think he's worth that? They are hoping to get a 1st, doesn't mean they wouldn't pay to get rid of him.

    Whoever is getting that job is in for a shitstorm after this year. That franchise is going to be worse than the 9 win bobcats for at least 3 years.

    Heard it's for a second rounder. I knew Kidd was going to be out in a year... now he'll go into obscurity where he should have been to begin with.

    Ridiculous.

    I thought the Bucks had a coach.

    Why aren't the Bucks just wait for him to get fired or resign? Surely he won't be back either way after what he did?

    Neither one of those owners the Russian and the rookie owner in Milwaukee act like they know what they are doing.

    He's made a lot of mistakes and he' not perfect but glad Paul Allen is the owner of this team and not making the same kind of bone headed moves.

    Yeah, PA made some mistakes early on. He is practicing patience a bit more these days.

    Certainly seems like he has been there and done that now. A lot more seasoned.

    I never said Allen did what the Bucks owner did. However, he did sign off trading Drexler (my favorite player at the time) to the Rockets. That irked me some at the time.

    When did Allen do what the new Bucks owner did? Without telling his GM or coach that their jobs were in question, he invited Kidd to take their jobs.

    No comparison to Allen. Paul always worked through lines of authority on the organization chart. His GM ran things.

    His inexperience came through in 94 when he hired a college coach PJ Carlesimo when he probably didn't have any business being hired before having his General Manager hired in Bob Whitsitt who I have to believe wouldn't have endorsed such a move.

    Yes, Paul Allen has made some boneheaded moves.

    PJ! Ugh! I think he was the only coach Portland had that infuriated me as bad as Nate. Both low points for sure.

    Okay. One. I didn't think Carlesimo was awful, just mediocre and undeserving of the job. He went on to be head coach of two more NBA teams, so he wasn't godawful, just ordinary.
