<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">This will be my last post on this thread, but I really don't see how Kidd contributes anything to this team without Carter playing beside him. He can't move the ball effectively unless Carter in on the court, now remember I said unless Carter is on the court. This is not Kidd's team, it's Carter's.</div> So those 14 asts Kidd had were because of Carter? Kidd sets up easy plays for different Nets players. They get easy shots, because Kidd provides them with the set up. Half court or on the fast break, it doesn't matter. Kidd will find any open player on the court. Carter isn't inside Kidd's head saying pass the ball here. He stands and watches Kidd create the play. Can't move the ball effectively? Are you sure? What games do you watch? This is Kidd's team. Plain and simple. Ask any person that has the understanding of the game, and they will tell you the same. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">since y'all are so trigger happy w/ reporting people, I'm going to definitely be trigger happy and report the lot of you. </div> Be my guest. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Oh great game Carter. You have this way of making Kidd look good.</div> Kidd has always been looking good even without Carter. Even before he was here. Stop thinking Carter is god, because he isn't. Carter is fortunate to play with Kidd, and vice versa. It's good to see Carter actually play the game using his head.
Alright Mercury. I'm really happy that our second unit from the raptors actually caught up to you guys, but Carter was really too much for us in the end. I only report what I see. Assists don't win games, scoring does. The Nets were lucky that both Bosh and Ford weren't playing well, because, I don't know if you watch any Raptor games, but they are a force to be reckoned with, and you'll see this when the Nets play on Raptors soil. Good win for New Jersey, but you guys live and die with how Carter feels emotionally each game. You definitely won't win if he doesn't feel good, and I'm saying this to stress the important fact once again that you deny: "Carter is a basketball God", and if you take Kidd out, he can still win games without him. Kidd can't, Carter can.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting hollagr8:</div><div class="quote_post">Assists don't win games, scoring does.</div> That was one of the dumber things I've ever read. The term "assist" implies that someone scored. The Nets (all of them) showed up to play. Give them credit.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Assists don't win games, scoring does.</div> Assists helps scoring. Why can't you just admit Carter is lucky to have Kidd? Even Carter himself, says he is happy to be around Kidd. I even remember him getting quoted saying "Kidd makes thing easier for me". You say that Carter is so amazing, and yet hasn't gone far in the playoffs, or had the same impact Kidd has. Kidd impacts all the players on his team. From Dallas to PHX to NJ. He also brings leadership to the team? Does Carter bring the same impact or leadership to the team? I don't think so.

Okay, I'll admit that Carter is lucky to have Kidd. You know why? Because Kidd shares the burden of being the go to guy away from Carter. Hey what's the argument here? The Nets won, and we're done.
<div class="quote_poster">Mercury Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">That's just ignorance. Your just bias towards Carter.

You'll notice that the Nets can only do anything w/ Carter on the floor. This is not an illusion. Please go take a look Mercury. Carter off the court, no scoring during the raptors second unit run. Carter off the court again. No scoring until he comes back on. This riding Kidd thing really has to stop.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">He was the leader on Toronto, was he not? Okay, I'll admit that Carter is lucky to have Kidd.

Maybe better than his teammates, but not among the league. My point is that your bias towards Carter. You won't admit that you are wrong, even if it is clearly shown that you are.

Your just making a fool out of yourself when you post. Think before you type. So you wouldn't be given a good spanking by everyone else. You have to understand that such comments can only get 2 responses. Either people will laugh till it hurts or they will be pissed. Do you understand little boy? Sorry guys the force on this one is weak
Guys don't let this Hollagr guy get to you, just ignore his idiotic posts. Everybody who actually watches Nets games can see that game in and game out, Kidd is our best player and leaves it all on the court. Wish Carter would play with Kidd's mentality, because he would be truly great if he did. BTW, I was a little dissapointed and couldn't help but laugh when the soccer player came out of VC at the end there lol. Leo's reaction to the the whole thing (I watched it on the score) was hilarious.

Forget it Mercury. I'm done here. You're all insultive, think Kidd is god and don't get persecuted for your actions. Whatever man, whatever. Long live the Nets.
