A great interview , I'll try to sum it up here. -He said Kidd did not play with heart -Did not think that Kidd and Vince had a Problem -This years pick is lottery protected and 2010 has no restrictions -Don't expect Miller to go to the Nets - Picks Phoenix to win the West - Said the key to the deal besides Harris was the 2 firsts - As of 7 pm last night, he thought the deal was dead - No other team made a real offer for Kidd after the original Dallas deal - The first deal was better financially for the Nets, but he is satisfied with this deal. If I think of more I'll post it.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>-He said Kidd did not play with heart</div> Thorn had no choice but to trade him. When your heart isn't with the team, then you really need to go. Once again, I am sad that things had to end this way. It's finally starting to sink in that I won't see Kidd play for the Nets anymore. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>-Don't expect Miller to go to the Nets</div> Could be a smokescreen. I'll believe it after the deadline.
One thing Mike and Chris did an awful job on, was not asking him if he was intending to make future moves etc. and what the nets plan to do with hassel. Thorn also said that he would stilll probably of signed VC this offseason if he knew he would trade Kidd.

EVERYONE ROD THORN IS GOING TO BE ON 1050 WITH STEPHEN A SMITH AFTER THE BREAK, AT LIK 345 probably so turn it on.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>"I don't think [the Nets] are done dealing," said the Western Conference GM, who expects New Jersey to step up its efforts to deal shooting guard Vince Carter before Thursday's trade deadline. Carter is in the first season of a four-year, $61.8 million contract. If a trade can't be done quickly, the Nets almost certainly will shop him during the offseason. According to a league source, New Jersey has had conversations with Indiana about swapping Carter for Jermaine O'Neal.</div> thank you S.I. com'on Kiki you know what to do
