Awkward Hiring of Jason Kidd a Troubling Sign for Bucks

Tuesday, 01 July 2014 | by Pat's Picks

Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel columnist Michael Hunt says the awkward way the Bucks went about hiring Jason Kidd away from the Brooklyn Nets undermines a sense of trust and credibility that the team’s new ownership group has been trying to build in Milwaukee. The owners went behind the general manager’s back to court Kidd, then put the GM in the awkward position of having to negotiate the terms of the deal with Nets’ GM Billy King, whom Kidd had tried to undermine in a power play in Brooklyn.
