MrMarcello;3862524Darkest day in Mavericks history when Kidd was traded to Phoenix. Yeah they got Finley, Green, and Cassell in return while ridding scrubs like Dumas and Meyer, but Kidd was the man in Dallas. Not Jimmy. Not Jamal. Nash came along the following season but I'd take Kidd any day of the week over Nash. And at that time Kidd was miles ahead of Nash in development.

Now this is what gets me. Yes Nash is a great player and all but Jason Kidd has been the best point guards I've ever seen (in the past 12-13 years I've been watching basketball) but the entire media usually have a wankfest over Nash.
I could also make a strong case that he was much better than Payton in his prime and even Stockton (although I caught Stockton somewhat at the end of his prime).
And Dallas were a mess before Cuban bought them. I reckon you are a Mavs fan, what your opinion about them? Do you think they could go all the way considering what I think was a psychological blow to them after getting owned by GS last season?
