magicbalala245 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 (edited) Quote Jason Kidd will have to decide whether playing at Madison Square Garden is worth forfeiting $12million. That is approximately the difference in the three-year offers Kidd received from the Knicks and Dallas Mavericks. A person close to the veteran point guard confirmed that the Knicks presented Kidd with a three-year contract worth approximately $18 million Saturday. The Mavs offered Kidd a three-year contract worth between $25million and $30million. Kidd could take at least one more week to make a decision. Signings do not become official until this coming Wednesday. Mavs owner Mark Cuban is optimistic that Kidd will re-sign with Dallas. Several league executives are convinced that Kidd is using the Knicks in order to squeeze more money out of Dallas. But a source close to Kidd claims that he is excited by the challenge of helping to turn around the Knicks. Also, Kidd believes that he could help lure LeBron James to New York if James becomes a free agent next summer. At least one of Kidd's former teammates believes the Knicks have a good chance of landing the point guard. Former Net Richard Jefferson said on Dan Patrick's radio show Saturday that Kidd's "gonna be a Knick." Anybody believe RJ about Kidd will be a Knick.

JWaLL Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I have a feeling he'll end up there. It really seems like he doesn't want to go back to the Mavs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Goods Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 It'll be exciting to see him play under Mike D'Antoni's style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDevil Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I dont seem him fitting in there that well. Hes pretty much over the hill, but he could be a great role player on a team to put them over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if he goes there then the franchise is making a big mistake .. you just can't bank on James coming to NY, it's stupid to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's Finest Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) I don't understand....why go to a team with no talent that is just waiting for LeBron and could care less about you when the season ends when you can play for the contending Mavs who only got better with Gortat?
