About damn time. Good career, not a Hall of Famer. Stayed a bit too long at the party.

I don't say this lightly, but this could be your dumbest post ever. He was a five-time All-NBA first-team selection and a 10-time All-Star.

Between this and your Tim Duncan post last week, it's very clear you know nothing about the NBA. Just another subject to add to the list.
 
Definitely a hall of famer, obviously.

But it is quite clear, after watching the playoffs, that his career quit on him before he could quit on it.
 
What he did with those Nets teams from 2001-4 was just amazing.

He's walking away from guaranteed money? Wow. The Knicks must be popping champagne.

Wow. Agree with LTL: this is the dumbest post you've made here.

That's NDJournalist level.
 
One of my favorite players ever. I've known Jason since junior high. I played against him at some basketball camps in Northern California in eighth and ninth grade. My mom's a Cal grad and my best friend went there as well, I probably saw him play 10-12 games while he was in college and a lot more than that when he was in high school. He just a beast of a player. He was most dominant high school player I've ever seen.

He's a first ballot Hall of Fame lock.

That's fine... There are enough people on here who know who I am and know where I'm from that they know this is true...

Enough, KY. Your effort to hammer him time and again is beyond absurd.

And yes, Hall of Fame for Kidd.

Webster he's in. No question about it. He enjoyed a rewarding career. I wish him well in retirement.

sorry to pile on but the original contention from 'mark' demands a late hit or three... as 'dumb' a post regarding a player evaluation as i've ever seen around here. whoever you are, mark, you've obliterated whatever was left of your credibility, which has been dangling from a thread for some time now....

he's owed 6mil over 2 years. I wonder if the Knicks made any settlement?

Kidd in high school was simply beyond amazing. A bunch of us would always head to the state finals in Oakland when he was playing, just to see what he'd do next. I think it was his senior year when Alameda St. Joe's was down in the fourth quarter, but he took over the game unlike any high school player I'd seen before, or since.
 
I kind of took the "not HOFer" remark as a joke since nobody apparently can retire without the HOF? thread popping up.
