Jason Kidd would like to be a Knick

[mfbmike]

Jason Kidd said when he becomes a free agent this summer, he would consider the Knicks because of his love of coach Mike D'Antoni and the Garden, even though he would have to take less than market value. Kidd always has enjoyed playing at the Garden. Though the Knicks have planned for the summer of 2010, adding Kidd this summer would be a drawing piece for LeBron James.

New York Post

Oh, snap. Imagine that. There was a time when LBJ wanted to bring kidd to the Cavs last season I remember reading about.

 

[Sean]

if i were James, i'd want Nash more then Kidd

 

[Marms]

when was the last time one of these rumors that would help the Knicks actually happened lol?

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

Somewhere Chris Duhon is sulking.

Kidd is Kidd but Kidd aint young and youthful like he was. Kidd is just a name and no one feels threatened by him. It's like players respect him but he's falling off. I think Kidd should be trying to develop the younger guards like how Shaq is trying to develop Amari.

 

[dboy_dc]

3 Kidd's in the first sentence...lol

It would've sounded better voiced out lol

 

[corbin]

They can have Kidd, just don't take Nash away

 

[SuperNova854]

I dont liek this just because thay already have Duhon and Nate at point. Even though Nate is a SG trapped ina small point guards body imo

And meanwhile the Cavaliers are number one in the east after giving Boston a spanking at the Q. Yeah LeBron wants out...

 

[mfbmike]

Nash would end up a Knick before Kidd would.

 

[Vinsane]

Yeah, they won a game in January. LeBrons gonna be there forever.

I'm just saying that the Cavs are sitting at number one, beat the Celtics, yeah Boston won the first meeting. Who says LeBron wants out? Certainly not LeBron. I'm sick of all this well "Who will pair with LeBron in New York" I'm going to point and laugh at every one of you when LeBron stays a Cavalier!

It's something to talk about. The media will beat it to death because it's fun to consider the possibilities.

It's like with rookies, the hype machine feeds off youth and potential.

 

[BWEISS]

I never thought anyone would ever want to actually be a Knick

 

[dboy_dc]

but you know he will. Just about every athlete will for money, when Ben Wallace left for 12mil more I realized that. A loyal player is rare these days, only a couple of left.

lol and you got him as you avatar


Anyway though, it's a whole lot of rookies coming up that'll be a nice addition for the draft.

 

[Vinsane]

Yeah because after all of his endorsements and the additional money he gets on his contract LeBron needs more money?

Come on and bring your A game if you want to argue. I can sit here and already tell you the next batch of arguments...

The Market:

Argument: New York is bigger than Cleveland!
Rebuttal: The NBA is INTERNATIONAL the world > city's. This isn't baseball.

The Players:

Argument: He wants to be surrounded by guys who can help him win a championship.
Rebuttal: Yeah, their current line-up is sucking right now, let me tell you.

The Money:

Argument: LeBron wants more chedda!
Rebuttal: The kid is 24 years old and makes over 100 million in ENDORSEMENTS ALONE!!! What money does he need? Where does a lack of funds fit into this picture?

Argument: 2010 is the future.
Rebuttal: 2009 is the present and his focus isn't winning then, it's winning here and now and getting back to the finals. He did it with scrubs two years ago, they've upgraded significantly and running into Paul Pierce and his 45 points bounced the Cavs in game 7 of the conference semis. Trust me, you'll get to see the Celtics TRY and do it again this year.

Argument: Vinsane you're knowledgeable and insightful.
Rebuttal: I can't argue with that.

 

[IamMedellin]

he's arguing with himself now....hmmnnn...

anyways...Kidd would be a disaster in NY....he couldt handle the NY media the 1st time and at his age it wouldnt be the best idea to have him run an uptempo O like D'Antoni's....its just not a good fit

but damn not even a full season in and he's already making plans to bolt Dallas?
