There’s no way this will happen, just because of Portland. Didn’t they just get a new GM with a brain? Honestly, they’re giving up a few players who actually have roles on the team for…Devin Harris? I like the guy, but the guys he’s getting traded for are almost as good as he is, and younger. Plus the mentioned chemistry issues. Portland would need a big sweetener for this deal to go down. Maybe a draft pick? NJ’s, preferably, since it seems NJ is going to be set for a while with the guys they’re getting back (or rather, their contracts).

Dallas, though, should do this in a hearbeat. Like Dime said, why not go from being a right-in-the-middle-of-the-pack team to a favorite? The West is a superstar away from being won. No one is dominant, the Spurs seem weak…I just don’t know why you wouldn’t. The Pistons broke a lot of molds when they won it all, one of them being that they didn’t have a clear cut superstar on the team. Besides them, most teams to have won it all had a couple superstars, or maybe even 3. Anyone that can get JKidd should do so. The Lakers, short of trading Bynum, were fools last year.

They can get a PG somewhere else.

I think Dallas should keep what they have honestly. They are pretty straight and I just don’t see where Kidd is going to make that BIG of a difference.

Myrie I agee with your first thought, it’s a nonsense move for all involved.

Kidd should go to Orlando.

Plus, to get a superstar, you typically have to give up young talent, expiring contracts, and draft picks. All of those 3 things are vitally important to a rebuilding team, so it’s not worth it to them to do that…

good point Myrie…Kobe’s the only one with the “no-trade” clause. Where JKidd wants to end up should be a non-issue with the Nets; do what you gotta do to get the right players back! How did the Mavs even end up in the running? Were the Nets really interested in Stack that much for rebuilding?

I dunno. Sacto is only a few games under .500 and Reggie Theus has done a commendable job. I’m not sure I would make that trade if I’m the Kings. But…’tis just a meaningless rumor.

But them Maloof boys and Geoff Petrie are never satisfied and they always think the team should be better than what they really are.

…there is no law that says NJ must trade Kidd to a contender. In fact, if I were a front office GM and a player wanted out, I’d send his backside to one of the worst teams in the league. And then I’d call his @$$ to ask him how green is the grass over there?

New Jersey needs to get young skill players in return for Jason Kidd. They need to be able to put a winning product on the floor by the time they move to Brooklyn in 2/3yrs.
