Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[hakeemfaan]

Kidd literally patted Harrison on the leg and said "good job" (referring to how the press conference was handled, when in fact it was handled as poorly as humanly possible) as he left after only a couple of softball questions. I didn't think he looked angry at all. I think he looked like he thought it was pathetic that so many people think this is a big deal that he couldn't just talk about the game, as per usual. He made a couple of overt jokes to that effect, even. I think he is one of the most arrogant people on the planet. 

I think Harrison and Kidd are 100% aligned, have been so since the beginning, and are basically a package deal. I think there's a 0% chance this happens if Kidd doesn't also want to be out from under Luka. 0%. 

Do not confuse this as an endorsement of the decision on my part, because I was against the Kidd hire from the beginning, have complained about him nonstop, only recently coming around a bit (begrudgingly) due to some nice results. Knowing (and yes, I think I KNOW this) that he's about to try to play AD at the 4 puts me right back into the "Kidd sucks" camp, and I think it's likely I'll stay there until he's gone, but we'll see.

I don’t know Killer.  I looked at it and got a different vibe. Also Harrison came across as a dbag taking shots at Luka, but he is trying to take one for the team by shielding Kidd?  Not saying both sides of his personality can’t be true.   It’s just that I got a different vibe watching Kidd. Plus Nico answered a few and then left for Kidd to fend off the wolves.
