Could Jason Kidd Really Leave Dallas For New York Again? (Probably not)

In this episode we discuss the recent report from Marc Stein that the New York Knicks are interested in hiring Jason Kidd to succeed Tom Thibodeau as their next head coach. We all agree it’s unlikely that happens due to a variety of factors, namely the fact that he is under contract for another two seasons. After the Mavericks won the draft lottery and the right to select Cooper Flagg, Kidd seems excited and energized to be able to coach another generation prospect. We also debate whether we want Kidd to continue as head coach. Ultimately, no matter how you feel about Kidd, the Knicks being interested in him validates his status in the league as a desired commodity. We then talk about the trade value of several Mavs veterans: PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford, Klay Thompson, Max Christie, and Naji Marshall. We gauge whether any of them can fetch the Mavs a 1st round pick in a trade and how likely they are to be traded this summer. This is a public episode.
