New York newspaper takes shot at Nets coach Kidd

With the Brooklyn Nets facing elimination at home in a crucial Game 6 on Friday night, the New York Daily News pulled no punches when taking aim at the Nets' head coach. 

The back page of the paper sent a clear message about coach Jason Kidd, who spent the majority of Thursday afternoon's conference call complaining about refereeing. 

Members and fans of both teams are making noise about the quality (or lack thereof) of officiating in the series, despite the fact that neither team has enjoyed an advantage in getting calls. 

Through five games, the Nets attempted 151 free throws, while the Raptors took 150.
