    My boss has insider. Just thought I would post this.

    I want Kidd !!!!!!!!!1 But Kirk and Tyrus would be okay if we don't lose anything big. I would be okay with letting Rudy to get Kirk and Tyrus. Salaries are off tho. We could figure it out.

    Thoughts?

    I do not want Thomas on my team. He is a chemistry disaster (picture a reaction flask exploding). Giving up Rudy for him would be even worse.

    From what I saw last year I thought that Thomas and Noah playing hard on the front line was quite a bit of what helped turn it around for Chicago last year. I thought the chemistry of the team totally changed as soon as Salmons and Miller came on board. It gave me the impression that guys such as Nocioni were actually the chemistry issues if anything.

    If there is any situation that I like, it's when a team develops a player just long enough to get rid of them at the end of their first contract. I think Thomas is coming along. Everybody knew he was raw coming into the league, but now he has a few years under his belt. I still don't think he is worth where he was picked, but he could be a solid player, and most of his painful development years are behind him.

    I think we stand a decent chance of landing Kidd for two years. He's one of Nate's favorites.

    Why are people enamored with old broken down PGs like Kidd and Nash?

    How are they broken down? Have you looked at their stats? Do you know anything about veteran leadership? Do you even think about stuff like the things they could teach Bayless?

    Kidd averaged 8.7 assist per game, 6.2 rebounds and played in 81 games.
    Nash averaged 9.7 assist per game and played in 74 games.

    How are they broken down?

    I thought Kidd played like shit all year until the San Antonio series. He showed he can still turn it up a notch in the playoffs.
