Jason Kidd sure knows how to call an offensive game, and to prove it, the Dallas Mavericks are 3-0 since Rick Carlisle handed over play-calling duties to Kidd last week.
According to the Mavericks blog at the Dallas Morning News, Points Per Game, Field Goal, Three-Point Percentages, and Assists Per Game are all up from 10-25 percent.
It's good to finally have a Jason who can call a decent offensive game plan in Dallas this year (how would he look in blue and silver?).
To me, Jason Kidd could be a player-coach. A player-coach simply is a player who is a full-time coach as well, either assistant or head.
Could Jason Kidd truly become a full-time player-coach? No, because NBA league rules forbid it, to avoid teams circumventing the salary cap. But for the sake of fun, I think Kidd is the best candidate out there for the position. I make my case below.
· Kobe Bryant—Intelligent and experienced, but not the best at seeing the big picture.
· Chris Paul—Intelligent and rivals Kidd for his floor vision, but doesn't have the experience yet.
