Sure he's shooting 37%, but he's still one hell of a point guard. 11/8/10 is nothing to complain about.
Espicially if Kirk Hinrich is your pg

Too bad that same "point guard" loves to chuck up ill-advised shots, can't run an offense, has never been accused of playing defense, and is bad for team chemistry.
He also has a penchant for getting in trouble with the law.
Did I mention that Jamaal Tinsley sucks?

Again, no one's ever said Tinsley was anything special. But then again, neither is Jason Kidd. If Kidd were truly an elite point guard, then the Net's wouldn't be perennial underachievers. At no point in his career has Kidd ever been as good as Steve Nash is now or as Chris Paul is now. Tinsley can in fact run an offense, and while his fg% is low, Kidd's is even lower. Elite point guards don't shoot 36%. Sure Kidd rebounds well, but it's offset by his horrendous shooting. If you take into account all of his pluses and minuses, he's an average player. Which is why, despite having two 20+ scorers and an alleged "elite" point guard, the Net's still suck major ass.
Replace Kidd with Nash, Paul, or even Deron Williams, and the Net's are no lower than a 5th seed in the East.
And yes he's a wife beater and a proven prima donna team cancer.

Jason Kidd is the best poing guard of this era (yes hes better than Nash)
How about you go and watch some games and not just comment on box score figures?

First the federal government borrowed money; then gave the money to Bank of America; then I borrowed some of that money from Bank of America and gave it to the federal government; then the federal government gave the money back to Bank of America.

Why would he search for a house in Saddle River ? He's not even from New Jersey , nobody lives in Saddle River, unless they work in New Jersey or New York..
During the Wizards' rout, a heckler yelled at new Knick Steve Francis, "Hey Stevie, Where are you going next?" Francis turned to the fan and quipped, "To the bank."

Again, there's no doubting that Kidd at his peak was a great point guard. I don't believe Kidd, at his peak, was as good as Nash at his peak or as good as Chris Paul has proven to be this season. But we're not talking about Kidd at his peak. We're talking about Kidd today, a 35 year old man with creaky knees. He's regressed considerably the past 5 years. He's still a great passer, and the best rebounding guard in the league, but his offense is horrid and he's nothing more than an average defender, at best. No team will give up a significant young talent for Jason Kidd.
If the Net's wanted to trade Kidd, they should have done it back in 2004 or 2005, when it was apparent the Net's were done as contenders. They've waited too long, and his value is at an all-time low, especially with the trade demand.
