Sources: Kidd Wants Out Of New Jersey
January 27, 2008 - 10:34 am
RealGM Staff Report -
New Jersey's Star-Ledger has reported that Jason's Kidd's agent Jeff Schwartz has asked Nets' President Rod Thorn to trade his client to a contender before February's trade deadline. The information was received from several unnamed league sources.
The problems continue to add up for Thorn as trading Kidd will not be easy if he wants to get even close to equal value in return.
"Right now things are going very poorly for us," Thorn told the Star-Ledger. "Historically, those are the times when you don't get offered what you might consider fair deals. And sometimes you feel that maybe you should do something to do something, but those are the times you have to be very cognizant and careful about what the results of your actions might be."

I hope Marbury won't commit suicide if Kidd leads the Knicks to the NBA FInals
What a shock......
Odom and Kwame for Kidd.
Make it happen Mitch.
Nooooooo, we can't trade Big for small. I wouldn't make that trade, especially since the bigs we do have are out. Turiaf would have to play center and he's hurting right now. Who else is healthy? DJ? That's not a good move right now, imo.
Are you serious? This is Jason Kidd we're talking about. Odom sucks and Kwame is 10 times worse than him. Yeah we'd be thin in the frontcourt for about a month. But when Bynum comes back our team would be stacked. If you think Bynum is good now just wait till he has a past first PG like Kidd. He'd make him look like a HOF'er. It would be a great move, but the Nets wouldn't do it.
Yeah I'm serious. I wouldn't make that trade with Kidd's enormous contract. $21million next season? The price is too high in my opinion.
I think Jason Kidd at that price for a likely Western Conference finals matchup (at the very least) is worth the deal and price.
That makes one of a backcourt top to bottom if the Lakers get Kidd.
Lamar's getting 14+ Million next season. As happy as I am with Farmar and Fisher at the PG position, it's is still a weak point for the Lakers. Kidd can still get a triple double every night. It would also allow us to have a stronger rotation at the backup SG. Kobe would be able to slide down to the 3 spot easier. Sasha and Critt would get less minutes. It's a win win for the Lakers IMO.
I'd kill for Farmar at the backup PG.
I'd kill for Tony Parker as the starting PG.
But most definitely Farmar is playing like a stud. He's a keeper.
kidd for dirk
mavs would be better off
No doubt the backcourt would be great but our frontcourt would suffer immensely! I like our chances as we are.
I hear you, I just feel that the lakers can do better than another guard for those guys.I would prefer änother forward you may be correct, I'm just not feeling that:
JKidd is a great, great player but the whole "he's the saviour and will win us a ring" thing is overrated.
I have to agree to a certain extent. My thing is if we make that trade, we would be like the Suns. Sure it would be better if Bynum were healthy, but he's not. If JO were healthy or a player of that caliber, that would be the trade that I would prefer.
Now if we could do a package that includes Brown, Walton, Crit/sasha or Rad,...I'm all for that.
I would laugh my ass off if the Lakers traded Odom for Kidd.
New Jersey would never take back Rad's contract.
Walton, Kwame, Farmar, Vujacic, Turiaf for Kidd?
Still not enough:

Looks like the only way it will work financially is if they trade Odom.
6 for 1 deal:

Yeah that makes sense. I would pass on Kidd at this price. I would try to move brown now, save Odom until next season to move if I had to or If Phoenix is ready to move marion, I'd do that. We need help in the middle right now, the guard play is not great but adequate.
It's a good time for the Nets to get out of that deal. Kidd may be the most overrated player in the game right now. The guy shoots 36.7% and can't play D any more. He's not making his teammates better the way he used to, and he's not winning. Kidd's game has fallen off a cliff this season, and all the momentum points to things becoming worse in the next year or so. I don't see him in the league after next season.
Why would anyone trade for Kidd? He has Carter and Jefferson on his team yet the Nets are in the cellar of the Eastern Conference. They should at least be a 4th or 5th seed.
