I think the Mavs would be feared and respected more as a team with Kidd.

First off, +rep for being able to link Jason Kidd, Professor X, Bruce Lee and Devin Harris.
Second, I see your point, but respectfully disagree. If you're an opposing coach you're worried about how whichever one player you put on Devin is going to be able to keep up with him. With Kidd you're worried about how if any one of your five players takes his eye off their man when Kidd has the ball there's a really good chance that's going to turn into an easy bucket. Kidd just gives you so many more things to worry about. That's my opinion anyways.....
