Krstic has now missed the last nine games, but is “getting closer” and looking “better” according to Thorn, who admits to being inundated with trade proposals for Jason Kidd since the migraine controversy.</p> </div> Krstic's absence tables decisions - Dave D'Alessandro - Star-Ledger</div></p>
The only reason I'm responding to this post before ghoti is because his head just exploded.</p> We're lucky to have a 9-11 record at this point against some pretty terrible teams across the NBA. The schedule only gets harder from here, not easier. And adding Krstic will make us better, but he's not the magic pill that's going to suddenly turn us into a title contender.</p> This team is spinning its wheels in the mud, making marginal changes that keep us treading water at the same mediocre level we've played at for the past 3 years. We're wasting the last few great years of an NBA Hall of Famer's career.</p> But Thorn's just going to sit back and wait for the pieces to gel. We're clearly just one piece away, right Rod? I'm getting sick of the broken record.</p>
Thorn,just sit ur old ass down.Its obvious this team sux,waitin' on who? Krstic aint Kobe,stop f*ckin' makin' excuses. *rolls eyes*</p>
oh please. so relying on a big who couldnt rebound or defend before when healthy and now is coming off knee surgery and is totally confidence shot is supposed to be the key to success? the fuck man, trade Kidd while he's hot.</p>
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (ghoti)</div><div class='quotemain'></p> I wonder what deals he's turning down.</p> What if Kidd gets injured?</p> </div></p> </p> He'll play through it if it means he'll be dealt.</p>
I'd pull the trigger on a Kidd trade. There comes a time when a player will get too old. I'd trade Kidd for some youth while he still has value.</p>

I wonder what teams are interested. Besides Cleveland, Dallas, and LA.</p> </p> Anyone remember that funny rumor last season where supposably; the Suns offered Raja Bell and a first round pick for Kidd?</p>

If we're not improved before deadline (21 Feb) I think Kidd would be traded. Thorn is not dumb and by any means he is not dumber than any of us.</p>
We all know what Thorn said but damm we can't even beat the clippers? Thorn we havea major problem, not sure if we can wait that long</p>
