best things about Kidd so far

- getting team to buy into team defense mentality - imagine what could happen if we add some more quality defenders?
- not being afraid to tinker with line up changes and giving guys time to play during the regular season so you know what works and doesn't work, and so that guys have a chance to develop (if you're trying out something for the first time in the playoffs out of desperation, it's usually too late)
- i also thought that he was being brought in more for his name and reputation, but let's face it - he does have a name and reputation as a HOF player. hopefully he can bring some of the following to the players from his playing days:

1. as a HOF pg he hopefully/rightfully will have Luka's ear but also know there are times when the coach has to trust his pg.
2. J Kidd was an oustanding defender even into his later years with us - so smart on and off the ball. How much of what he sees and knows of players can he coach his guys to do?
3. Started off as a pretty lousy shooter but really came to be a knockdown 3 point shooter in his run with us. Gives me hope even as we have seen DFS blossom and have hopes for the likes of J Green or Frankie.
