NYK is not exactly primed for big things but he gets a young group and a bridge year, basically anything he does will be gravy this year and maybe the following year, too. In Memphis things were deteriorating very quickly and only got worse. Kidd was a weird one. You get the sense he is not a very endearing person, although that isn't really a job qualification. Another way to look at it is that he had high standards and the team wasn't performing to them. I think Budenholzer will do all right there, though the team kind of lacks direction. They seem to be endlessly shuffling the deck around Giannis.
