I hope you get to laugh your whole ass off then.
I hear you I'd love to get a real PF that can rebound, score, and play defense. But those are real hard to come by. But believe me we will get a whole lot more easy baskets if Kidd is playing the point. But I would only trade Odom and Kwame for him (maybe a pick). I don't consider Farmar and Critt filler for Kidd. That's why I doubt it happens.
Vladimir, Brown, and Walton/Fisher for Kidd would work.

If Mims comes back and does a good job it might work for now. I just think if we gut our team or give up most of our bigs right now, we're conceding defeat this season and building for next. Ronny would be all we have right now if Mims doesnt make it back,... but if we got Kidd and pay him the 21 million next season, im sure he would sign for much less when that contract is up.
hmmm,...Naw man i don't like it, make New Jersey buy him out, then we can talk.
It would have to be walton. Fisher will retire a Laker! I'd do that!
kidd isn't putting any team over the top, with the exception of boston or cleveland.
I agree. I don't get why so many people think the Lakers or Mavs have this HUGE need for Kidd. I love his game, but he's not a miracle worker.
Kidd is pretty damn good. He might not put the Lakers over the top, but he definitely gives them a much better chance at winning. If it only costs something like Odom and Kwame, to me it's a no-brainer.
I think Mihm is done. I wouldn't count on him for anything. I guess it comes down to how much we think of Odom and Kwame. I don't happen to think much of both of them. I don't think making that trade is conceding defeat.If Mims comes back and does a good job it might work for now.

i hope ur being sarcastic
the Lakers should trade odom and kwame for kidd in a heartbeat.
Kidd, Bryant, Bynum = Finals
Foolish foolish foolish.
M.K. won't make that trade because he's not a moron.
I hope against hope that the Lakers will trade Odom for Kidd.
Yeah, I won't trade Odom for Kidd....at this time either unless it comes with another big. Both players can rebound, pass the ball and both can't shoot worth a lick. Still, sliding Kidd at the point with Fisher starting at the 2 would be nice. I would play Kobe at the 3 and have turiaf start the at the 4.
Please Donnie, don't trade for Kidd. Let's take our lumps and get Devin healthy.
Bynum, Odom >>>>>>>>>>> Bynum, Turiaf
So much so that it negates the fact that Kidd is there.
What does Kidd bring that you don't already have?
What would the proposed trade even be? Kidd makes a crap load of money.
The only way I see Kidd coming is if they trade Dampier, and they're not taking back THAT contract.
The Nets would ask for some combination of Howard, Harris or Terry. I think Harris is probably 80% the player Kidd is and he's ten years younger. There's just no way to make it work. Besides, Harris has really stepped up his game this year. I don't think PG is a weakness for us. I'd prefer one more interior defender ala Kurt Thomas, or another post-up guy to go with Bass.
and another complication with Kidd going to Dallas is that NJ would obviously want Devin to be the PG replacement, but he's BYC so we'd have to throw in a whole lot more. Now watch us get creamed by Boston on Thursday night and have to hear from that fatass Barkley about how much we need to make a trade.
Most logical fans only listen to Barkley for entertainment purposes.and another complication with Kidd going to Dallas is that NJ would obviously want Devin to be the PG replacement, but he's BYC so we'd have to throw in a whole lot more.

I will laugh if the Mavs trade Harris or Howard + whatever for Kidd.
Why? Because he's jkidd? A 35 year old, 20million a year jkidd who is yet to win a le? The Lakers didn't win with GP, Malone, SHaq, and KB. Kidd does not come with guarantee. A guard is not what the Lakers need.they need a 15/10 low post pf. I'm all for moving brown and odom for that.
if the Lakers make that trade they will be even weaker and jkidd Kobe and a bunch of guards would be no better than his team in NJ . Bynum is not here and the Lakers healthy with Bynum were #1 in the west, they don't need Kidd at that cost.
Odom and brown's contracts are gold! They can get 2 solid role players for those contracts. Baron Davis will be a FA. Andre Miller appears to be available if the Lakers wish to persue a guard.
I'm satisfied with our guard play.
Right now the Lakers need a low post PF; a middle aged pf would be best.
Damn, that would be sweet to see Cuban trade even one of Harris/Howard for Kidd. I would instantly hate him a lot less if he pushed for that deal to go through.
I really wouldn't count on Kidd coming to Dallas. If Harris is out longer than 2-3 weeks, I can us getting involved in the Mighty Mouse sweepstakes, but they're not about to go breaking up the core after they sat tight in the summer. Harris has improved on the biggest weakness in his game, which is outside shooting. I no longer cringe whenever he takes a jumper.
There is a god~ The Lakers have no interest in JKidd. That's a good thing,

The Lakers are not expected to be a player in a trade for New Jersey's Jason Kidd, a source said.
The Nets, with a 19-26 record, reportedly are shopping Kidd, who is indisputably ready to go, having said, "It's time to move on."
Bryant, who once pushed for a Bynum-Kidd trade, isn't going that far anymore. Jackson is thought to be skeptical about bringing in the 34-year-old point guard.
Holy Christ Dallas will be the odds on favorites if this deal goes down
http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_yl...yhoo&type=lgns
I hope that goes down. Assuming Parker gets back healthy, that makes the Dallas matchup much easier for the Spurs (even moreso with Stackhouse out of the picture). Kidd couldn't guard Parker at all 5 years ago (the Nets had to switch Kittles onto Parker after the way TP scored at will on Kidd in games 1 and 2), and now he has no chance. Kidd can't guard Ginobili either. Harris really makes the Spurs lives on D, and he's not the defensive turnstile Kidd would be at PG.
That would make Portland nasty too, especially with Oden next year.
WOW
Now that would be a trade I'm definitely interested in. Especially if the Nets were to buy Stackhouse out, as it suggests, and we could re-sign him.
