Jacque Vaughn said Saturday he isn’t going to change who he is as he tries out for the Nets head coaching job. Take it or leave it.
But he said he understands he’ll have to grow what he sees as already a good relationship with the the team’s superstars Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. That is no concession, he says. It’s reality and it shouldn’t surprise anyone that a head coach needs to have such relationships. Drawing on his experience as a journeyman on pretty good teams with pretty good players, Vaughn ticked off some examples.
