Uh oh, DoK

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Uh oh, DoK

I hope he doesn't have a belt or shoelaces handy.

[Culburn369]

It was a $26M extension but, Sarver garnished $4M right off the bat to pay Porter not to coach, since Nash is the one who ran him off.

[BRHornet45]

LOL sons what a joke

[sribb43]

so for the next 3 yrs...

Kidd: $25 mil
Nash $35 mil

Kidd deal doesnt look so bad now

[BRHornet45]

sons at this rate, we may as well extend Peja's contract ... i say 3 years, $40 million. since everyone else keeps giving washed up trash too much money.

[rjv]

so he has accepted the fact that he will never win a le?

Nash/Kidd would easily be the 2nd best player on the Hornets

Yet would have the 5th highest salary.

lol 121-63

I think every team in the league would rather have David West over Jason Kidd.

As long as he's having fun.

In spite of the fact they both shoot from 21 foot out.

Fun > championship

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Um,

Nash >>>>> Kidd.

You must be pumped for three more years of losing in the first round or possibly missing the playoffs completely.

[spursfan1000]

Damn arent the Suns in a rebuilding mode? why would you give a 35 year old (not sure of age) such a big contract...another big mistake by steve kerr.

[Findog]

Um,

Nash >>>>> Kidd.

Uh, no:

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Over paying a washed up player to ensure the Suns can barely sneak into the playoffs and maintain mediocrity rather than scrap the team..........it's like Jerry Colangelo never sold the team and Bryan Colangelo never went to Toronto!

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Uh, no:

Nash probably felt like Kidd's wife after that game the way Kidd slapped him around.

[da_suns_fan]

Right...cuz a team with Nash never makes it past the first round of the playoffs.




Your posts have become a cliche. The bottom line is Nash is worth whatever other teams would be willing to pay him. We know Portland and especially New York were after him and were willing to offer 10+. Thus, the extention is a pretty fair value IMO.

[Findog]

Kidd can't shoot anything midrange, Nash can't play defense. I'll put Kidd's ability to hit a three ball up against Nash.

I'd rather have a guy who can still defend the bigger two-guards like Kidd can. Nobody can keep CP3, Parker or Harris in front of them, so why that's a mark against Kidd and not others I don't know.

[resistanze]

Nash got slapped in that game. $22 million well spent.
