Jason Kidd's job as the Dallas Mavericks head coach has undergone rather significant changes in the last 12 months. This time a year ago Kidd was in the midst of coaching Luka Doncic through his first NBA Finals experience; it ended quickly at the hands of the Boston Celtics but optimism surrounding the organization's future was quite high. Then came the stunning trade that sent Doncic to Los Angeles in exchange for Anthony Davis, an injury-riddled second half, and an even more stunning lottery process that saw Dallas win the No. 1 pick.
It's been a whirlwind, to say the least. And now Kidd's name is in the news as a rumored target of the New York Knicks, in search of a new head coach after firing Tom Thibodeau.
