So Kidd had a pivotal role in getting him to sign to Dallas. Kidd's relationship with players more than his Xs and Os will most likely keep him as Dallas coach for a while...Mavs just need to surround him with better Xs and Os guys and let Kidd manage players and egos

The only problem with this mindset is that one of the bigger egos in Dallas that needs managing is his own. There is a pretty long history of Kidd not allowing high profile assistants around his teams. He has never quite had a situation happen as bad as the Adrian Griffen/Terry Stotts fiasco, but he has not always found ways to incorporate talented people into his workflow.

Still, people can change, and people can improve. He obviously has job security here, so maybe that will go some ways towards leveling out insecurity that he has shown in the past.

There are some things that I still don’t love about Jason Kidd as a head coach, but I have reluctantly come around on a lot of his game. This team plays hard and unselfishly, and that is a large part of the battle.
