Kidd's Knicks Dream: Fire or Flop? | BT & Sal

BT and Sal delve into the swirling rumors of Jason Kidd potentially becoming the next Knicks head coach, with Sal asserting that Kidd views it as a "dream job" and the only move that aligns with a coherent plan for the team, given the "smoke" around his name. While Sal believes Kidd is a good coach and a familiar face to Jalen Brunson, he expresses significant reservations about Kidd's past character and loyalty, acknowledging his "slippery" nature. BT questions if Kidd is a definitive upgrade over Tom Thibodeau, but concedes Kidd's differences might benefit the current Knicks core, especially concerning Jalen Brunson. The conversation also touches upon the intense scrutiny a Knicks coach faces and whether Kidd possesses the alpha personality to handle New York's demanding media and fanbase, ultimately concluding that a Kidd hiring would, at least, signify the Knicks finally have a "plan."
