Doc Rivers would be the Knicks’ best coach since Pat Riley — sorry Jeff Van Gundy, but it’s true — and that hiring would make the Jason Kidd signing look like nothing more than a PR stunt.

Keidel: History Suggests That Jason Kidd Wouldn’t Succeed As A Head Coach

Lichtenstein: Nets Should Stop Kidding Themselves On J-Kidd’s Candidacy
