I’m thinking Marks was fully in support of this move and KA likely was too. Kyrie is an Iso ball player who wants to get mines, then you get yours. The timing was smart by Marks for him and KA as they can both make their next plans. Marks knows that KA is a CBS type coach whose teams run an offensive scheme. How many times did I hear last year that the team would practice their O and everything would go great and then in the game "people" wouldn't execute the plan? 4 guys playing an offense and one guy, who also happens to be the PG, not playing the offense, completely messes things up.
Marks knew that KA wasn't right for the group next year. Lue is exactly the type of coach Kyrie wants to play with. I get mines, you (KD) get yours, I get mines.
What's the Nets starting squad next year? KI, KD, Harris (for kick out 3's), Allen (to rebound and play defense) and Levert (in case KI and KD can't get a good shot).
