Being a good looking individual can get you shyt my niccas...that's for both women AND men. Kidd used them blue eyes to milk the Nets damn near dry, then they reached a limit. So Kidd hit the Bucks with them eyes and they bout to give him everything. Reality of how life works. It's studies that show the leg up attractive people have over the Larry Drews' out here. It's a cold world. Kidd been caught up in all type of bullshyt and is ascending up the ladder in rapid fashion. Why you think that is?

brehs, this nikka jkidd is grimey as fucc:wtf: look at his rundown of fuccery:

So, a quick tally of everyone Kidd has either betrayed, alienated, usurped or attempted to overthrow in a matter of days:

  • Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov, who entrusted Kidd with a $190 million roster, despite Kidd's lack of coaching experience.
  • Nets general manager Billy King, who strenuously defended Kidd, publicly and privately, throughout the Nets' struggles early last season.
  • Bucks general manager John Hammond, who would have lost his authority had Kidd been granted the dual president-coach role he initially sought from Milwaukee ownership, according to league sources.
  • The Bucks' coaching staff.
  • The Nets' coaching staff, which has been left in the lurch for days while Kidd, who hired them all, plotted his escape.
  • Nets fans, who worshipped Kidd as a star point guard a decade ago, and warmly embraced his return as coach last summer, only to see him flee after one season.

Sources in Brooklyn remain convinced that Kidd will eventually be named team president in Milwaukee, endangering the security of Hammond and his top deputy, David Morway.

What's motivating Kidd? What made him feel entitled, after one season on the bench, to run a franchise? Why did he rush headlong down this path, without regard for anyone in either organization? And why in the world would he trade a star-laden playoff team in the nation's largest market for a rehabilitation project in the NBA's 24th-largest market?

Why do this at all?

"That's the million-dollar question," said one Nets source.

Answers will be hard to come by, even once Kidd is introduced in Milwaukee and starts talking again. Kidd has never been a particularly forthcoming or reflective soul. In interviews, he speaks with a strange, almost-pathological detachment and a thousand-yard stare that conveys neither empathy nor interest.

We do know this: emotional detachment and betrayal are as much a part of Kidd's career as his pinpoint passing.

Kidd has been torching relationships and torpedoing coaches from the moment he arrived in the NBA. He clashed with Jim Cleamons in Dallas. He cursed out Scott Skiles in Phoenix. He led the insurrection against Byron Scott in New Jersey. He ultimately quit on the Nets, then forced a trade back to Dallas, where he clashed with Avery Johnson.

A year after winning a title with the Mavericks, Kidd bolted for the Knicks, breaking his verbal agreement to re-sign in Dallas. For that betrayal, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban vowed he would never retire Kidd's jersey.

This is Kidd's legacy, as much as his 12,091 assists and his 10 All-Star selections.

Above all else..does this fiasco not make everyone realize how STUPID they sound when they criticize players for not being "loyal"? A player can be cut/traded at any time, a coach can be fired with zero warning or legit reason, and coaches (especially in college) can suddenly decide they want a new job and get the fukk outta town.

Yet there's outrage whenever players want to maximize their contract value or play for another team. Ridiculous.

How in the he!! did this just happen??? Kidd strong-arming teams like he got a Phil Jackson or Pop resume. He made it to the playoffs yes but it was in the EAST. And at times that even looked questionable.
