But that was 7 seasons ago and between now and then, Kidd basically fell out of graces with the NBA as a head coach and went through a sort of "rehab" by being an assistant in LAL. And everything that Kidd has said about learning under Vogel (who is incredibly KIND) is about learning how to be a better communicator who really listens to other people.
P.S. You can't really argue with the immediate results of that coaching style though (as much as I think long term it is a ticking time bomb)...for he took them from 15-67 to 41-41 and the playoffs.
I just don't know, friend. He certainly doesn't instill confidence in me when I hear him speak publicly and we have a lot of horror stories about his head coaching stints. And yet, there are players who love him (Giannis) and players who want to play for him (Dame) so that's a positive. I hope that he has grown as a coach.
