-get a first round pick from a lotto team
-potentially upgrade at coach
-get rid of a huge d-bag

Kidd has always been a total scumbag, going all the way back to college. Props to Carl for breaking the story.

I've always been a fan of kidd. Even when he signed with the Knicks. I forgave him for that as a Nets fan. But him being a total douche bottle to the organization that has supported him has pushed me over the deep end.

This isn't a good argument, because Kidd was a much better player than either of them.

And apparently, Proky agreed to giving him a raise...he just didn't want to give him front office power, which is totally reasonable.

so whats the word on compensation? a first from a lotto team would be insane, and really be a boost for this team with how few assets/young players we have

Something tells me that if Carl ends up giving up his source to Prokys Nets, that source will end up at the bottom of the East River tethered to cinder blocks. Don't do it Carl...

I'm a huge Kidd supporter- but even I couldn't pass up on a deal like this.
OKC Thunder fan, too.

Id rather Carl not let us know his sources


Agreed.

I didn't read Lee's tweet that way. I think he was saying "Kidd: you've made tons of $$ -- and you got a fairly fat contract for a a 1st-time coach. Are you *really* wildin' out over not getting as much loot as Fisher and Kerr?"

We were missing our starting center, who usually does a hell of a job on either Blake or DJ, both of whom went nuts during the series. Also, the preacher couldn't figure out how to initiate a ball movement offense until a player suggested it to him.
