I think we need to focus on his player development and team development philosophies and what he prioritizes in his coaching. I think his strategies will remain similar and his tactics will be whatever they need to be to succeed. I think there will be trial and error and patience required. I expect him to figure the tactics out by 25 games in.
I don’t disagree. I just know it was one of the more frustrating things with Kidd and the regular season. One, not starting your best 5-man lineup and even if he did, he was lowest in the league in having them play together. It was only ever the first ~5 minutes in the first and 3rd quarter. Never went back to it. Where the good teams were all near the ~20 minutes mark. It makes a difference in the W/L column…
