at this point if he's saying this stuff he's just looking for a reason to leave
they lost because kidd wasn't the best player on the court. kidd can say whatever he wants to deflect away from that but i think its just him being defensive about it
isiah thomas is a terrible coach and has no sense of when to sub people in and out.
he can make a game plan, but as soon as someone counters it, he's clueless.
he relied on jermaine o'neal to hit him big shots when he wasn't ready for it.
i blame thomas fully for messing up austin croshere. under larry bird he played with total confidence. now thomas comes in and look at him. he lost all that confidence and was never liked by thomas to begin with
jermaine oneal is pulling stuff like this with the pacers, saying he won't return if thomas isn't the coach and if artest isn't traded. if it was up to me i'd let them both go, and let bender and harrington play more.
