I was as wrong as humanely possible on Lively. Maybe even more wrong than that. Kidd still kind of sucks though even if I've come around on the idea that he can keep the locker room steady.
I think I was probably with you on both points and had us at 43 wins I believe in the prediction thread. Feels like we could get a handful of wins higher than that (knocks on wood).
I'm not going to lie though, I'm honestly starting to complain less and less about Kidd the past month. I don't have many issues with the rotation and the increased pace has really gotten everyone more involved (in my opinion). I think he still is bad at understanding when to use timeouts to stop the bleeding at times and figuring out a rotation before the playoffs will be interesting but I think he's done fairly well with this roster when you start to factor in all the injuries.
