MrDollarBills, I'd reply to you again, but we both know how jumpy you get.


You can reply all you want and i'll respect your opinion, because unlike yourself, I don't walk around thinking that everyone should have the same opinion as I do. It's not much that you can say at this point, the guy looks awful. I will say this, i thank him for forcing his way out of NJ at the time he did.

After what i saw last night, not only do i think Thorn cashed his chips out at the right time, but the dude looks washed up out there, he's being exposed badly and it serves him right, he thought he was so great and better than everyone on this team, now look at him....a fragile shell of his former self that is getting eaten alive by the best PG in the league and unlike how it was here when he was being a malcontent that thought he could do better than playing alongside the likes of RJ and VC, the current talent around him isn't helping to hide how bad he's fallen off. Anyone who thinks we'd have been in a better position by keeping Kidd at this point is fairly delusional.

Mark Cuban, this one's for you :beer: Looks like Josh Howard isn't the only one whose getting high down there in Texas!!!!!!!!


Honestly, I tend to disagree with Mr.Dollar Bills alot and I usually tend to believe he is way to harsh on Kidd for all he did for us NJ fans, but this post is spot on.

Why? He didn't want to give up the easy layup. He gave him a hard foul when he couldn't grab him on the break. That's something you're taught once you start playing high school ball. Kidd was going for the hard foul or a steal if he could at the same time as Pargo was going up. It didn't look intentional.


I don't think so Raneman, when a guys feet are in the air and a guy grabs him by the neck and pulls him down its more than a hard foul. If it wasn't so out of charactor for J Kidd he would have been suspended IMO. If it would have been the other way around and Kidd was fouled like that there would have been a suspension.

In all my posts in this thread, this is what you come up with. What a joke.

I've seen the play a dozen times and I've seen worse (Although we've all seen worse for a suspension too).

Stone, you and a friend...try stripping the ball from a friend while he jumps in the air. It would take a lot of force, wouldn't it? Now...try doing it on a fast break. What are the chances when he brings it up, you're going to miss completely or hit him hard? Simple physics everyone.

Rich, i think you're a royal a - - hole, but its silly for us to be at odds over our opinions about Kidd. That's why i'd rather just leave it at that and not get into silly back and forth arguments, we're both Net fans here and it's better for us to discuss whats ahead for this team instead of feuding over someone that isn't even on the team anymore, so i apologize for being a douche.
