Way to come and shit in the thread. I thank you, kind sir.

well, he probably won't, if for no other reason than the list of talent above. However, in addition, I think everyine expects that he won't put up the same numbers with Dallas--for one thing, since the Nets replaced Collins in the starting lineup, his rebouds are WAY down, which I'm sure will continue. If you've got a PG who can't score and can't rebound all that great, what have you got? A complimentary player that you can't build around. Which is what Kidd is right now.

I agree with you. Just look at the season Baron Davis had, and he still couldn't make it.
As for the rebounds portion of your argument, well I'll agree, as well. Its very likely that his numbers will go down, to perhaps 6 boards or so, considering that Dirk and Dampier average 9 and 7, respectively. But it's not like his rebounding numbers will drop too significantly. In general though, Kidd's assist numbers and overall impact will be the biggest key when it comes to him being named to the All-Star team.
But once again, its a tight race, so even a player with a great season might get snubbed.
