Right now I am leaning towards Dwight, Oden, Wade, Green, Kidd?

[Joel Embust]

Dwyane Wade
Jeff Green
Dwight Howard
Josh Howard
Greg Oden

IMO Dwight, Oden, Wade, Green is set in stone.

The final spot should go to (surprisingly all of the three are Dallas players )either Kidd(best player among the bunch but also have probably 1 or 2 more years left as an elite player) ; Terry(criminally underrated,not young but also have 3-4 years left in the tank and J.Howard(injury prone,middle of the pack performer and never been better than a top-40 player which only occurred once).

I think I'll go with Kidd. Just his name value will probably bring you someone better than Terry or Howard next year.

Thanks, I was hoping someone was gonna tell me Kidd had a season or two left in the tank

Well, that's really depends on when you have to choose your keepers.

Indeed, it would be grea to know where will go Kidd before keeping him or not, in so far as he'll be a FA this summer.

There is 3 options :

- If he signs in a contender to have a smaller role (Let's say, sharing the PG spot with Nash in Phoenix, or Lakers to replace Fisher,...), he could have very average stats.

- If he signs with a running team who badly needs a PG ( Who said Golden State) he could have great stats, even better than this year' stats.

- If he stays in Dallas, he will pretty much have the same type of stats, probably a bit worse.

But I don't know why, I don't really think he'll stay. He badly wants a title and it doesn't seems to be the right place to get one. Golden State could be an option, but with the Monta Ellis situation, I'm not sure it's very attractive (But a Kidd-Ellis-Jackson-Randolph-Biedrins with Turiaf-Maggette-Wright-Belinelli-Azubuike-Morrow on the bench seems really good, if the mood follows).

As far as Ranking is concerned, I would be Keeping:

3. Wade
6. Kidd
24. Terry
35. Bibby
42. Dwighty

But that is obviously bunk
