Cuban: No Chance Mavs retire Kidd's #

[PJR]

Cuban is quite the petty little bitch.

If Bruce Bowen can get his jersey retired then Kidd deserves it by a mile.

LOL Bowen played 750+ games for the Spurs, including 3 championship runs... besides what does the Spurs internal decisions have to do with the Mavericks? Franchises don't have some common standard for retiring jerseys - obviously. Kidd could be argued more important for the Nets than the Mavs, you can't say that about Bowen who will undoubtedly be remembered as a Spur and still has ties to the city of SA.

It's common knowledge that the Nets will retire it

LMAO thinking Nets should retire Vince Carter jersey. WHILE HE IS PLAYING. Or maybe even RAps

That would be great

[D.J.]

He only played two full seasons in the first stint and he was well past his prime during his second stint. His jersey will most certainly be retired by the Nets and only the Nets.

[jstern]

Why would any team retire his jersey? He was a great player for a few years but he's not an all time great, I guess anyone can get their jersey retired nowadays.

You must be like 5 years old. Or trolling.

I can't find that quote absolutely anywhere.

[Poetry]

but he's not an all time great

You don't seem to know anything about basketball.

I know you're young, and by virtue of being inexperienced, you don't have the understanding and knowledge that other people have, but damn, think before you open your mouth.

Nets should..

If only Jason Kidd Nets beat the Spurs back in 2003 to win the championship, I can see him a top 3 pg of all time easily..

lol'd at this. Though it's not as authoratative or considered an authentic historical source if you don't post it on a picture the quoter. I think it's most reliable of all if it's being said in a speech bubble.

As for Kidd's Jersey it won't get retired in Dallas (or certainly it would be unlikely to) and that is fair. His #5 would be more worthy of having but is hardly a reminder of glorious era and he hadn't hit his prime. Hanging #2 would just be done if they were retiring everyone from the title team (Dirk obviously it will happen anyway, but Jet, Chandler, Marion and Kidd don't have either great longevity or elite superstar play that should be required to raised to the rafters). The Nets is the franchise most associated with Kidd he peaked there and played longest there and there his jersey should be retired.

Interesting anyway the Cuban essentially sees the main reason right now that he wouldn't do it is because he's mad and that it's a temporary thing
