I will concede Kidd would aid the offense greatly. But the idea of smoke trails from Barbosa and Parker ... I'm not saying Kidd is a bad defender, but in comparison, he is definately a slow one.
yes that is hard to measure. wish it was easier like baseball stats: hitter vs. pitcher. part of the fun of bball.
but note this, for the high flying nets with jefferson and vc getting easy looks, the nets are shooting:
43.6% with 93.6 ppg, good for 3rd from last (heat, minny teams with much worse pgs)


would love to see how him vs. barbosa match up though.
