Despite speculation, Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd is expected to remain with the team. The New York Knicks, who recently fired Tom Thibodeau, expressed interest in Kidd, but the Mavericks insist he won't leave. Kidd's negotiations for a lead assistant coach, Jay Triano, further solidify his position. While Kidd previously left Dallas for the Knicks as a player, the Mavericks believe this scenario won't repeat. Kidd's strong relationship with Knicks' point guard Jalen Brunson adds to the speculation, but the Mavericks maintain confidence in Kidd's commitment.
