I still think we need to give this team more time before we consider blowing it up. If we were to trade kidd though than LA would be the best destination. Kidd and Collins for Farmar, Ariza, Turiaf, Kwame (expiring contract) and Odom (1 year remaining)...personally I think Farmar and Marcus would be a great PG tandem for this team and they would push eachother for minutes.Turiaf is a hustle player and Ariza reminds me ofa young RJ.</p>

AI/Camby for JKidd/Twin AI VC RJ SWat Camby Three 25pt scorers and 2 two rebounder/shotblockers...20 free throws a game by AI and RJ alone...AI and VC can both pass...20 rebs and 5 blks per game by SWat and Camby...now go buy NBA Live!</p>

This is the guy who everyone claims is the greatest competitor they have ever met. Remember the trainer that helped him rehab after his knee surgery claimed that Kidd had the "willpower" to win a marathon? I've run with my shirt soaked with blood, and after being warned that if I run I could suffer a stress fracture and need surgery. and I have nowhere near his willpower. 1+1=2.</p> </div></p> It's hilarious.</p> He heard Boone had a migrane and just said "I have a migrane, too!"</p> Just like a five-year-old.</p> </div></p> </p> Maybe we should have a thread about Boone's willpower, then. lol! [Poor Josh. Since this was publicly revealed, I've often wondered how much his migranes hampered him in college. Did you see him stumble to the bench, looking like crap last night? And people wonder if he really wants to play basketball for a living. He's a good kid who put his team first. Now if he could only develop a jumpshot.]</p> </div></p> </p> Josh Boone really really ****s....</p> That's why he can not surpass Sean Williams. No matter talents, health, or willpower.</p>
