Summary
With Jason Kidd reportedly going to the Mavericks as their new head coach, the Lakers are in line to hire a new assistant under Frank Vogel. What are some of the qualities the team should look for in replacing Kidd? Like they did with Kidd, should the Lakers look for a former head coach to join Vogel's staff? How important a factor should improving on offense be when making a decision on an assistant coach? Pete and Darius answer these questions and more, while breaking down Kidd's time with the Lakers and how his tenure with the team ended up being way less controversial than it looked like it might be when he was hired.
