Rod Thorn's Statements on WFAN 

Post#1 » by kidd0701 » Tue Feb 19, 2008 8:30 pm

A great interview , I'll try to sum it up here.

-He said Kidd did not play with heart
-Did not think that Kidd and Vince had a Problem
-This years pick is lottery protected and 2010 has no restrictions
-Don't expect Miller to go to the Nets
- Picks Phoenix to win the West
- Said the key to the deal besides Harris was the 2 firsts
- As of 7 pm last night, he thought the deal was dead
- No other team made a real offer for Kidd after the original Dallas deal
- The first deal was better financially for the Nets, but he is satisfied with this deal.

If I think of more I'll post it.

On 1050, said he felt Kidd gave up on team in December.

Probably because Kidd concluded the team had no chance at competing for a championship.

Did admit there where on the floor some chemistry problems, but thought the players themselves got along together well.
