Kidd's path just got a little steeper: Lopez out for the year with a broken foot. Three surgeries since 2011. Damned shame. Will his career get cut short like Ming's? Or will he be able to play a long career in a diminished role like Bill Cartwright?
Logical option would be Asik, but Nets have no assets. Would Houston take KG in a package? Would KG waive his no-trade clause? Billy King says the Nets won't be making any moves, but tough to see them moving up if they don't move someone into Lopez's spot.
Really hate to see a talented player like Lopez have his career shortened.
