    Anybody else notice that Jason Kidd doesn't do the kiss to the rim anymore when shooting freethrows? Why?

    It's weird that you ask that because I was wondering that the other night myself. It has become a trademark of his. I also noticed that he doesn't throw his wristband into the stands after games anymore.

    The kiss was to his wife and son. It became a habit for him. Jason is getting older and I don't think his heart is in New Jersey or the game. It's really sad when you think about it. I used to love watching Kidd play in 2003 but when Martin left it took away his running mate. I hadn't really noticed that he stopped doing the kiss at the stripe.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The kiss was to his wife and son. </div>

    I realize this, but he's still loyal to his wife and his kid. Why should his heart not being in New Jersey anymore make a difference in a ritual he does for his wife and his son?

    I wasn't implying that it didn't change anything about his wife and son. I was just adding the part about his heart not being in New Jersey.

    Nah, Jason Kidd seems like he likes playing in New Jersey, even more since VC came months ago. He seems to enjoy playing with him. When RJ comes back in the future and the Nets make a few trading moves, they'll be back in it.

    But still, I've noticed Kidd did shoot better freethrows with the kiss. Ah well.

    Who was it that used to rub his face before he shot free throws, as a sign to his kids?

    That was Jeff Hornacek from the Utah Jazz. He's a great shooter.

    he wasn't checking for wind, he was making an imaginary ring to shoot the ball through for better arc and precision. its not BS, well at least for Mark its not.
