National Media Sours on Bucks Coach Jason Kidd
A funny thing happened yesterday, the national media decided they were also on the #FireKidd bandwagon. Jason Kidd got taken to the proverbial woodshed yesterday by so many different people that weren’t related to the Milwaukee Bucks. The quote that may have stung the most was from Celtics beat reporter Jay King who quoted Brad Stevens regarding age. You match the two quotes together, and you realize Kidd is nothing more than a snake oil salesman. National media putting pressure on Bucks ownership is a great thing especially so close to All-Star Break.
The fucked up thing about Milwaukee right now is they could lose tomorrow to Philly (Guessing, but they’ll be an underdog), out of the playoffs then could easily rail off 12 of their next 13, and things would be hunky dory. Reason is Milwaukee’s schedule gets much easier starting next Monday and into the All-Star Break. There’s only a few teams in those next 13 that are playoff teams at the moment. But what the Bucks don’t want to have happen is the same national media to grill Giannis Antetokounmpo at the All-Star Game about his coach. That’s going to happen if Milwaukee continues to be this dumpster fire of a team. My guess is Milwaukee and Giannis do not want to that happen.
It’s good to see the national media get behind the ‘Jason Kidd sucks at life’ bandwagon though. Happy to have them, even if, it took them a few extra weeks to get there. That’s only going to add to the discontent Bucks fans have right now along with pressuring the local media to have a spine about things.
