New York Daily News: In order to afford the maximum contract that free-agent Kenyon Martin will demand, Nets management has begun to explore the possibility of trading away Jason Kidd and his large contract. The option came from the team’s brainstorming on the impending Martin free agency and is still considered unlikely. Nonetheless, the Nets are at least contemplating the possibility of dealing away the premier point guard and may be testing the market to determine his trade value. "We are not shopping anybody around," Nets CEO Rod Thorn. "We talk about guys all the time. People talk to us. So to say we are shopping him or Kenyon or anybody else is not true." Several league sources say incoming owner Bruce Ratner intends to pare down much of the team’s sizable payroll so where the Martin signing fits in to all of this remains uncertain. There is a rumor that the Nets may look to do a sign-and-trade of Martin to Denver for Nene.
If we get TMac, we have nothing to offer in a trade for Kidd outside of TMac and Yao, and that isn't happening.
Mo Taylor, the trade exception, a boatload of cash, and all our draft picks for the next 5 years to the Nets for Kidd!!!!!!! Kidd T-Mac JJ whoever Yao Ming Salivating...
i really don't get this. The rockets will have McGrady and Yao. There should never be another trade thread involving stars. We've got our stars, now we need role players
Its insane we just need some average joe's that know what there job is....give the ball to T-Mac and Yao the rest will fall into place with solid role players
I see no reason to stop there. I was thinking Vassilis Spanoulis and part of the trade exception (not all of course - we need some other players!) to Orlando for Francis back and maybe Dwight Howard and Jameer Nelson .... oh, and DisneyWorld.
I think Les and CD would have made a run a Jason Kidd if he didnt have to worry about trying to get his wife a job as well and making sure that his son gets as much attention as Yao. seriously though try to put the pipe down before posting things like that
You just don't understand. Some of the Rockets fans wont be satisified unless we can get Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan on our team too. Kidd T-mac Garnett Duncan Yao
player we need try to get steve Jackson 10 m for 3 yrs Al Harrington for Mo or Juwan Horward then we'll have a very young team
Why not Jason? If Rat - tner is so into cost cutting then the TE and Juwann or whatever + draft choices + significant cost savings. Oh, why the hey not???
Check this out from UnReal GM Houston trades: Everybody except T-Mac and Yao Houston receives: 2004 East and West Allstar Starters Change in team outlook:OVERLOAD Rest of League trades: 2004 East and West Allstar Starters Rest of League recieves: Rocket's bench Change in league outlook: Teh suck TRADE ACCEPTED Due to the Houston Homerism like a motherf*cker rule.
Why stop there? Lets convince Jordan to come out of retire again. Lets hire Marc Stein to be our new head coach Lets get Bill Gates to be the owner Lets make a time machine and draft Wilt Chamberlain
How about Taylor, Spoon, and Pike for Kidd? Maybe Nets will throw in a future 1st round. BTW, can we convince Kmart to take MLE from us?
