Both are unlikely destinations because of what Thorn would get back, but Kidd in Denver or Portland would be fun to watch. Imagine Oden (next season) and LMA getting passes from Kidd.</p>
In about a day, I expect Kidd and/or the team brass to come out and say how unbelievably ridiculous these comments were, how none were true, and how Kidd loves it here in New Jersey.</p>

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Exit16W)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> Kidd is on w Mike and Chris at 1:45</p> </div></p> Thanks for the heads up. Can someone give a recap? Not that I'm expecting it to be anything groundbreaking or whatever, but still.</p>

The only team I could see Kidd getting delt to without myself becoming depressed would be the Hawks. Sending him to the Cavs would doom our franchise no matter how hard we tried to rebuild.</p>
If the Nets trade Kidd, Thorn needs to use it to rectify his past mistakes. If a team wants Kidd, they better take Collins and Magloire as well.</p>

Not sure if this was posted.</p> </p> <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Jason Kidd talked to the media this afternoon and said that he was indeed sick Wednesday and would have played against the Knicks if he could. He denied being “on strike”, saying: “I would never disrespect the game” or his teammates. He confirmed his agent is talking to Rod Thorn, but there was no outright rejection of a extension request.

What would you guys think about trading him to the Warriors for Monta Ellis and the W's trade exception/filler. As a Warrior fan I think it is a win/win and I'd love to see Kidd come home to Oakland.</p>

It'd take a lot of 'filler' or a 10 million trade exception to match salaries (I'm ballparking that number)</p> Kidd for Baron Davis and Bellineli</p> </p>
