[young3000]

I remember Kidd upsetting Duke in the NCAA tourney

 

[mastermind]

It's been forgotten, but there were many conversations that J Kidd in his prime was the best player in the NBA.

Facts

No there weren't. Why lie?

His best years were in Phoenix to 2006

You had Jordan, Duncan, Shaq and Kobe.


JKidd was an athletic menace at Cal and up until his time was up in Phoenix

We are clearly taking about the early 2000s.

No one ever said that

 

[BK The Great]

One of my favorite point guards of all time. His Nets run was legendary. And he won a championship against a prime LeBron too.

Steve Nash won back-to-back MVPs, and no one said he was the best player in the NBA in that period.

We are clearly taking about the early 2000s.

Yes, in an NBA with Shaq, Duncan and Kobe. No one was putting Kidd in that class.

I was outside. I remember this. There is no reason to change history.

steve nash never took a team to the finals, kidd did in back to back years

 

[god shamgod]

Kidd almost went to the spurs as a free agent after the ‘03 finals too

 

[GoldenGlove]

It's been forgotten, but there were many conversations that J Kidd in his prime was the best player in the NBA.

I wanted him to get MVP the season that Duncan got it.

 

[mastermind]

steve nash never took a team to the finals, kidd did in back to back years

And Jason Kidd never won an MVP. So what?

Kidd was never considered the best players in the NBA. That was not a conversation.

 

[GoldenGlove]

Yes, in an NBA with Shaq, Duncan and Kobe. No one was putting Kidd in that class.

I was outside. I remember this. There is no reason to change history.

Kidd was arguably the best all-around player in the NBA in that Finals run tho, I remember it vividly

 

[OneManGang]

Ya I’m with @mastermind

At no point was Jason Kidd ever in best in the league conversations. He was always given his flowers as a very good PG, an All Star caliber player, but yall overdoing it with that. That never happened

IDK what that even means. People used to say this about Pippen in the 90s, but when you stepped back, it meant nothing because there were at least five players better than peak Pippen, including his teammate. You could argue his Bay Area bredrin, Gary Payton, was a better all-around player because at least Payton could get you 20 ppg.

Shaq, Kobe, and Duncan were clearly the best players in the NBA in 01-02, and then Duncan got a quad-double in the title clincher in 2003. You brehs gotta stop equating the convos you had on at the lunch table in grade school with actual conversations.

All I am saying is there is no need to embellish how great Kidd was by either thinking the conversations you had with your friends are what everyone had or just making up shyt because many people are too young to comment on it.
