Maybe this should be in the other forum but, I thought with such major players involved, all should see this.

I honestly did hear this item on the radio tuesday night. The Nets are calling the Blazers about doing this deal.

If I were a Nets fan, I would find this to be a dreadful deal. I think Mourning would be the next one to ask to be traded to a winner.

EHL

What is Nets management thinking? They make Sternling look like a lavish spender.

SkywalkerAC

Telfair and SAR for Kidd is the deal that the Nets should be seeking (after Dec).

That would be a good deal for both teams. Recently, kidd was wotrh more than that, but he is not going to make the current Nets great on his own. A very good PF and an exciting prospect PG would be a pretty good way to continue rebuilding.

Amareca

This would only happen if Blazers management is on crack.

Kidd is way way overpayed and had microfactur surgery. The same that Penny, Houston and Webber had.

Real McCoy

This would obviously be the Nets trying to cut payroll as much as possible. They would be smart to get Damon as well, if possible for Mourning and Aaron Williams.

Might as well clear all the cap room.

first of all ratner is not sterling. Ratner is just staging a complete rebuild and a move. Id do what he is doing. As for the trade. Its good for the Nets. But if I was the Blazers Id wait to see him play in some games first before I did it.

please Nets trade Kidd for Nash or something !!!!! please !!!

Ick, i doubt the nets would do that. Nash has a HUGE six year contract.

It's been ten years, and I say if Michael Jordan chose to still play the game of basketball, he'd dominate.

OMG

Nash has 6yrs/60M$ with the 6th year not even fully guaranteed.

Kidd has almost 5yrs/100M$ left on his contract. Is recovering from a serious knee injury and older than Nash.

Phoenix would never trade Nash for Kidd.

LA68

That would make sense. Por has too many PG's anyway.

Telfair is on a rookie deal, would get to play 30-40mins a night, in a couple of years he will be running a Brooklyn squad. Sounds like a winner to me. I'm sure he can throw alley oops to RJ.

This trade has upside and down side



Up side -

Can Let Van Excel And Damon Leave after the season
(if JK is healthy)

Will be a great mentor for Telfair

Give us one the best point guards in the league which we have never had.

Downside-

May never be the same player

Contract
(but would not matter because of the fact is we dont have jason we will have to sign 2 guards next season with low money and we REALLY dont want damon back so there is a upside to that.

I am missing stuff but it does help us out.
