Kidd got the Nets to the playoffs, but the Nets allowed the coach to walk anyway.
According to the Journal Sentinel, “Kidd will replace Larry Drew, who coached just one season with the Bucks. Drew went 15-67 in his only season in Milwaukee. He had two years remaining on the deal he signed last summer, a three-year contract worth approximately $7.5 million. The Bucks new ownership team of Marc Lasry and Wesley Edens met with Kidd in New York on Friday, the day after the NBA draft… Bucks general manager John Hammond initially was not consulted on the move to hire Kidd. But a source indicated Hammond will remain as general manager and David Morway as assistant general manager, with Kidd being hired only in a coaching role.”
