"And was not a point guard, the position that people
tend to think makes the best coaches (from Blatt to
Doc Rivers to Jason Kidd, etc."

He might end up the best coach of all time.

That doesn't mean the criticisms weren't valid, because
they were.

Kerr never really demonstrated much of a big IQ as a player,
so the hire was kinda given a "why?"

Its kinda like how Scott Brooks gets to keep his job -- the
type of privilege rarely afforded black coaches with that level
of scrubery.

Kidd, on the other hand, is one of the 5 biggest basketball
savants ever, no debate. And Fisher has been long lauded
for his IQ.

Facts.

Kidd got a good NBA job, and did an excellent job by
every account, and has his young Bucks team player *much*
better than a year ago, including *instant* transformation
of Brandon Knight.

Nobody is hating on Kerr by asking why *he* deserved *that*
job. Its a fucking FIFTY WIN TEAM.
