Ah, damn. Why did he have to pull this against the Knicks of all teams? It was almost a guaranteed win if he played and the Nets would have been tied for 4th in the Eastern Confrence! Couldn't he have waited until they played the Rockets. Losing to the Knicks is just too depressing. Rockets I could handle.</p>

</div></p>

The Nets still could have won against the Knicks if Marbury and Curry had played.</p>

</p>
 
If theres no public announcement about this soon, do we just assume it is true?</p>
 
Trade Kidd to play with LBJ.</p>

</p>

I'm glad to see that.</p>
 
oh, there's no question it is true, it's the first thing I thought when I read the news last night. This is the guy who everyone claims is the greatest competitor they have ever met. Remember the trainer that helped him rehab after his knee surgery claimed that Kidd had the "willpower" to win a marathon? I've run with my shirt soaked with blood, and after being warned that if I run I could suffer a stress fracture and need surgery. and I have nowhere near his willpower. 1+1=2.</p>

It's hilarious.</p>

He heard Boone had a migrane and just said "I have a migrane, too!"</p>

Just like a five-year-old.</p>

Maybe we should have a thread about Boone's willpower, then. lol! [Poor Josh. Since this was publicly revealed, I've often wondered how much his migranes hampered him in college. Did you see him stumble to the bench, looking like crap last night? And people wonder if he really wants to play basketball for a living. He's a good kid who put his team first. Now if he could only develop a jumpshot.]</p>

He did look like complete shit and he actually showed up. Head in his lap the entire game though but I don't blame him with the bright lights.</p>
 
This is truly unfortunate.</p>

I don't want to see Kidd traded to the Cavs. I despise them. I don't want to see Kidd traded to the Mavs, because that's only too good for their franchise.</p>

I don't want to see him traded to the Lakers because that would be too good for Kobe.</p>

This is a no win situation for us.</p>

You never know. In a freak turn of events, LeBron could demand a trade to the Nets and we could all be happy.</p>
 
How about the Wizards? Take back Jamieson and his expiring contract, Nick Young, and a pick or two. The Wizards then have a Kidd-Arenas backcourt, insert Blatche into the starting lineup, and presto!.</p>
 
Both are unlikely destinations because of what Thorn would get back, but Kidd in Denver or Portland would be fun to watch. Imagine Oden (next season) and LMA getting passes from Kidd.</p>
 
In about a day, I expect Kidd and/or the team brass to come out and say how unbelievably ridiculous these comments were, how none were true, and how Kidd loves it here in New Jersey.</p>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Kid Chocolate)</div><div class='quotemain'></p>

would much rather devin harris than anythign thte lakers or cavs have to offer </p>

</div></p>

</p>

</p>

no u don't. Id love a Bynum, Walton or Bynum Farmar package from the lakers plus there pick. or a Turiaf, bynum package</p>

</div></p>

Yes I would. Maybe you wouldn't, but I would.</p>

</p>

If the Nets ever traded for Bynum, I'd no longer root for them.</p>

I'm surprised they have come out and said that yet.</p>
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Exit16W)</div><div class='quotemain'></p>

Kidd is on w Mike and Chris at 1:45</p>

</div></p>

Thanks for the heads up. Can someone give a recap? Not that I'm expecting it to be anything groundbreaking or whatever, but still.</p>
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ghoti)</div><div class='quotemain'></p>

I guess some people owe me an apology for giving me shit for spending the offseason calling Kidd a selfish asshole.</p>

</div></p>

haha, hi ghoti :-)</p>

But c'mon now, risking injury to play for team USA is a completely different context than sitting out because you want to play for a contender. I agree that the later is inexcusable.</p>

Here's my biggest beef: how come some of us are able to justify keeping the team together through the injuries, but not Kidd? I mean, does he not get that Krstic, Marcus, DA, et al are coming back? Does it mean that he wants a new coach? Is it really just all about the all-mighty dollar? Hm...</p>

Since some of the reports are painting it as:
Kidd: I want an extension</p>

Nets: No</p>

Kidd: Then trade me!</p>

It comes off as"I'm not happy here, but if you give me more money, I'll deal with it"</p>
 
The only team I could see Kidd getting delt to without myself becoming depressed would be the Hawks. Sending him to the Cavs would doom our franchise no matter how hard we tried to rebuild.</p>
 
If the Nets trade Kidd, Thorn needs to use it to rectify his past mistakes. If a team wants Kidd, they better take Collins and Magloire as well.</p>

Well, that'd make sense. Let's listen to him, and just do it.</p>

Not sure if this was posted.</p>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Jason Kidd talked to the media this afternoon and said that he was indeed sick Wednesday and would have played against the Knicks if he could. He denied being &ldquo;on strike&rdquo;, saying: &ldquo;I would never disrespect the game&rdquo; or his teammates. He confirmed his agent is talking to Rod Thorn, but there was no outright rejection of a extension request. Rod Thorn corroborated Kidd&rsquo;s story.</p>

What would you guys think about trading him to the Warriors for Monta Ellis and the W's trade exception/filler. As a Warrior fan I think it is a win/win and I'd love to see Kidd come home to Oakland.</p>

</div></p>

lol thanks but get out of here. It'd take a lot of 'filler' or a 10 million trade exception to match salaries (I'm ballparking that number)</p>

Kidd for Baron Davis and Bellineli</p>

</p>
 
The warriors have a 9 mil trade exception from the J-Rich deal</p>

</div></p>

Can't combine players and a trade exception to get a more expensive player</p>

</p>
 
Impossible for GSW to use TE to get Kidd, can't combine with players. Need to package Davis.</p>
