Every name tied to Nets’ head coaching job

The Brooklyn Nets may have the pick of the litter when looking for a head coach, assuming Jacque Vaughn doesn’t keep the job after 2019-20.

Jason Kidd

Jay Williams has been the only one to propose the New Jersey Nets legend as an option:

I think you need somebody who can manage egos. And I think a guy Ty Lue is an option. I think a guy like Jason Kidd is an option. I think you need somebody that both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving can look at and say, ‘This guy is in tune with this game. This guy has won championships before.’ He’s been around [the right] caliber of players that he’s been able to lead them.

Of course, Nets fans remember Kidd was in charge of the 2013-14 Nets. But his tenure ended not long after their run in the 2014 NBA Playoffs concluded.
