Powell isn't even getting garbage minutes at this point. I think we are in for a long playoff run and hopefully a championship but if Nico pulls of 1 or 2 more moves this next season... Watch out league.
The team seems to be bonding with Kidd too. He seems like a players coach.

Players coach, don't ask Larry Sanders.
He's coaching the way he played, trial and error, like a chemist in the lab. As a player, he would purposely over throw passes, under throw passes, trying to find teammates' sweet spot, but once he found it, he was never off target. But with new seasons, bring new players and new experiments for the chemist. Will Kidd ever win 60 regular season games, probably not, but can he win a Finals? Getting to the West finals, 2 years ago, I will say yes, his intensity picked up and so did the players. The way he celebrates buzzer beaters, it ain't another day at the office, not like when he was a player. You'd think he just won the Finals.
