Jason Kidd comes across as very mild-mannered, unassuming and easy to get along with. But clearly, that’s far from what he actually is, according to some.

Tyronn Lue seems to still be finding his way as head coach of the Cavs. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, since the Cavs pretty much led the East wire to wire this year and have clinched the top spot. He’s still tinkering with his lineup and is about to make a somewhat bold move [...]

Rookie head coach Fred Hoiberg [...]

The DeAngelo Russell, Nick Young fiasco may have died down a bit from a media standpoint, but the Lakers are still feeling it in the locker room.
