Boston with Ricky and/or Raef leaving
Denver might do Andre/Leonard/Skita but I doubt they give up Nene
Golden State might do JRich/Speedy and expiring contracts
Houston would be happy to give them MoT
New Orleans is looking to get rid of Monster Mash but NJ ain't taking him
Portland will give up Mighty Mouse and maybe SAR
Seattle might give them Ray Allen but I don't see that
Toronto might give up Carter if NJ threw in some picks and Carter goes public

These are what I consider: A strong market for Kidd. One of these teams will certainly up the ante to get Kidd. It is very easy to trumph the original Lakers deal proposed in this thread. For instance, Dallas could offer Antoine Walker & Josh Howard (or Devin Harris). Dallas may even take Zo by swapping him with Christian Laettner. Portland could trade Shareef (or Damon Stoudamire/NVE) + one of their young kids like Telfair or Travis Outlaw. Memphis could offer up Jason Williams, Mike Miller, Bo Outlaw for Kidd and Zo, Indy would give up Tinsley, Bender, & Pollard. Etc...
These are enough market for me. And by the way, I think Kidd will not be traded until at least Dec 15 for couple reasons: 1) He needs to show he is healthy; 2) A lot of contracts (like Devin Harris) are eligible to trade again.
The Nets would be wise to hold on to Kidd at least until X'mas. Plus I don't think they are that desperate anymore after the trade of Kittles.
