But contextually, based on the Mavs current players and situation? I think Kidd is the "better coaching fit."
It may be an "abstract thing" but I am guessing if you took a poll from all of the GMs (or similar type folks) Rick would probably be the near unanimous choice. I'm struggling to see what you might have seen in Kidd's previous head coaching stints that suggest he might be a "better fit" than Rick? Honestly I think one of the reasons he was chosen was to help out free agent recruiting (which obviously failed). The question always asked of the "fire Rick" guys was "replace him with who?". I feared it would be somebody like Kidd. Its early, and time will tell, but I struggle to find any reason for optimism that Kidd will get more (or as much) out of this team than Rick did.
