Kidd was introduced on Thursday as the new coach of the Brooklyn Nets, less than 24 hours after he was hired by the franchise that he led to its greatest NBA success.
Hello, Brooklyn. The Nets will introduce Kidd as their new head coach on Thursday at a 2 p.m. press conference at Barclays Center.
Kidd met with general manager Billy King on Monday and Shaw is expected to meet with the team Wednesday.
He was just named the new head coach for the Kings and Michael Malone is already in hot water with the NBA.
Brooklyn's coaching search is "strongly pointing toward" Kidd after his meeting with team brass, the Post reported, adding that he's "viewed as the leading candidate for the job."
The NBA will join the NHL, as well as MLB, and have advertising on the court during the 2013-14 season.
Kidd is interested in Brooklyn' coaching position and plans to talk to the team this week, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Less than a month after winning the NBA's Coach of the Year award, Karl's tenure with the Nuggets is over after 8½ seasons. His departure comes shortly after Masai Ujiri, the league's executive of the year, left to become GM of the Toronto Raptors.
Perhaps the most key matchup of this matchup will be Tim Duncan vs. Chris Bosh. Which center will emerge as the bigger impact player? Craig Carton joins the Sports Verdict set to debate!
