was watching via internet stream...was getting beat pretty badly...going to be a long second half for him. Will they make they playoffs? Can you imagine if they finished 9th? Wow!
I'd rather cheer for the success of our team than laugh at the failure of others. I have a lot of respect for what Kidd did for our team. With that said, I think they will make the playoffs. It's just one game, Kidd has to get used to the team.
i really wish that pick was not protected this year, dallas might not make the playoffs, which would be ironic since he wanted to go to a contender i dont want to root against kidd but the mavs are a bunch of douchebags, stack, george.... i hope they lose every game

It was still only his first game. I would laugh if Kidd didn't make the playoffs when we do but I want him to win a ring.
You watched the game, and yet you don't mention how Paul got all those points. In the third he went on fire, because of the high pick-and-rolls, which made Kidd ineffective. He was constantly picked off by Chandler, so how is that his fault? Perhaps you should blame the player which failed to pick up Chris Paul. But I won't take anything from Paul. He had an awesome game and hit did hit some though shots. He really got it done.
I want all those people who said Kidd turns the Mavs in to championship contenders to remember their post come April and May. Also note that the Spurs picked up Kurt Thomas. So now the Mavs at best are the fifth or sixth best team in the west Spurs Lakers Hornets Utah Suns. As I been saying and Stephen A Smith pointed out losing Diop will hurt them come playoff time. Also Kidd can not handle fast guards I said this and you see Paul proved it. Wait playoff time it's going to be worse. The Mavs are going to need more than JKidd

With how good the West is, it might not be too far out of the question for the Mavs to miss the playoffs. It really depends on how tough their schedule is, because if they lose 2 or 3 in a row, they'll go from 4th or 5th to 9th in a heartbeat.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>It really depends on how tough their schedule is,</div> It was said that the Mavs have the 10th toughest schedule remaining, in the West.

If they somehow missed the playoffs as a 9th seed, which is very possible with this conference. Then wow, I have no idea how Kidd would react to that. I can't fathom. And to top it off the Nets could make the playoffs? Wow.

You don't measure a teams success with a few games, much more having Kidd for just 1 game. Paul did great, nobody can take that away from him. His team is on a roll. Your talking about one of the best player in the games history. Kidd will turn it around. And here you are talking about Kurt Thomas and Diop.

How's this for an indirect dis of NJ (Kidd's comments after the game): <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I caused a couple of breakdowns, Kidd conceded. We can build on this. I have some bad habits. I just have to make some adjustments and look at the game.</div>
