He sure as hell needs to get that 3-point shot fixed but saying he's done in the halfcourt seems a stretch to me. Look at the difference in the looks everyone gets when jkiddo is in there versus jjb for example, night and day.
And sure you can say it's because jjb stinks, but that's not the point, he just doesn't make the passes that jkiddo does.

i mostly agree with this. someone said above (ericalubarsky?) that this team needs to rebound better and run more. everyone is energized by some easy transition buckets. if Kidd can start hitting on say 38-40% of his 3's again that would really open things up and we'd all be thinking much more highly of the guy. Kidd seems run down and way off but let's give it a few games with Dirk and Tyson back before we start ringing his death toll...
