The Nets' coaching search appears to be heating up.
According to The New York Times' Marc Stein, Brooklyn has put together a list of coaching candidates that includes Tyronn Lue, Jason Kidd, Mark Jackson, Jeff Van Gundy and interim coach Jacque Vaughn. Stein reports that the team's search for a new coach won't "hit top speed" until the 2019-20 season is either finished or canceled, but the Nets are currently looking for candidates to consider.
Former Bulls and Timberwolves coach Tom Thibodeau reportedly is not on the Nets' list and "is believed to be solely a Knicks candidate," reports Stein.
