Yes kidd can coach how to pass get the ball back then bobble it. because kidd spelled backwards describes him best

Going with Kidd because we don't need Herb or Walker coaching this team lol

The way we are going, does any of the two want to coach the Knicks if not for the big paycheck?

Time to revist this thread after how Woodson handled that 4th quarter. Amare on the bench when he and Melo were torching the Heat. Wade torching Kidd when Shumpert was doing a great job on him

Good luck in finding a coach who never makes mistakes!

Kidd is old enough to coach. He gets the nod
JamesKPolk @ 3/3/2013 4:05 PM
Kidd for player-coach.

What's the point, people will only give him less than 70 games to prove himself, just like they did Woody.

That would only be true if Woodson didn't already have a track record as a head coach. Personally, I think we're allowed to take into account Woodson's past performance as Atlanta head coach when we evaluate him.

He's doing that every game with Amare. No matter how well he's playing and how few minutes he's played Woodson chains him to the bench at the end of every game.

At it has nothing to do with minutes restriction he just doesn't trust him for whatever reason. If he doesn't start Amare and play Kmart i'm gonna tune out til 2015. No point in watching a team that will go 1 on 5 in the playoffs to start and finish games

Woody has proven himself with the Hawks. He proved he is mediocre at best. Nothing has changed here.

Amar'e on not playing down the stretch: "Coach's decision."

How do you define 'stating the obvious'?

Also what the hell is the deal with Woody and Cope??? There's no reason not to let Cope play when Novak isn't getting it done. The kid has game. He's shown that he has more skills than Novak and IMO he can help this team.

Chris Copeland is a scrub.

No he's not! When the kid got minutes he was producing good role player production. What do you expect from this guy? You have to play in order to actually have a chance to prove yourself. Woody never stuck with the kid. White plays and what has he ever one? Cope has shown far more than White ever has!!! When Cope got some minutes he was just fine.

This was one of the best comments i've seen regarding Woody's decision making:

How Anthony can manage just 1 field goal attempt and zero points the last 6:50 minutes of the game is inexcusable. How Amar’e Stoudemire is not put back in the game after being pulled with 7:56 to play for added offense is also head scratching.
