"We have mutually agreed to part ways with head coach Jason Kidd," the team wrote on X, formerly Twitter. "A Mavericks champion, Hall of Famer, and coach who helped lead this franchise back to the NBA Finals. Thank you, Jason."
Underneath that post from the Mavericks, fans made their opinions known on how they felt about Kidd's leaving, as starting with the people that disagreed with the decision, one user playfully mentioned that the city has stopped supporting the team.
"Most of Dallas has agreed to part ways with the Dallas Mavericks ," @RoadToSix wrote on X.
Another user named just "John" even mentioned how Kidd was not the problem with the team, and mentioned how the successor won't "do any better."

On the other hand, there were a lot of positive comments about Kidd's firing, with one criticizing how rookie Cooper Flagg was used this past season.
"Hopefully the next coach won't still try playing Flagg at point guard like Kidd did," @amssportsguru wrote on X.
A user would even point out how Kidd was "part of the team that pushed" Luka Doncic out in the trade, agreeing with the decision to part ways.
"Good!…now we get a clear, fresh start. Owners won't change, but everyone else that needs to be gone now is," @JeredJohnson1 wrote on X.
It remains to be seen who Dallas hires as its next head coach, but there's no denying that fans will have various reactions then as well.
