West Coaches Talk About Kidd for Harris

[pegs]

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>Writers for the Nets’ and Mavericks’ websites asked two Western Conference coaches what they thought of the Jason Kidd-for-Devin Harris deal. Unlike Phil Jackson, who expressed happiness that Harris went East, neither Mike D’Antoni nor Don Nelson would side one way or another, but both suggested the 10-year age disparity between the two point guards was significant.</div>

Yeah. I wanna see some coach just come out and say it was a shitty move for Dallas. For this season, at least. Of course, this season just might be all they have.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>“For a short period of time, they really have improved their team,” Nelson said. “It’s the long term effect, where you’re picking up an older player and lose a younger player, so you’re talking about after three years. But as of right now, I think they probably are a stronger team.”</div>

Oh yeah, Don. Keep lettin' 'em think that.

Kind of stupid asking Nelson. He's not going to say his son made a ridiculously bad trade.

Guarantee: within 5 years he'll be saying his son's boss made the trade against his son's better judgment
