So we stick to Kidd an don't get any younger or deeper. What about next year then when his contract is only worth 10 mil with lets says 2 or 3 years on it. We have nothing to revamp the franchise. This is the kind of contract you use to rob teams with.
I say roll the dice for Shaq and Kidd straight up and hope Kidd comes back once they cut him.

That's the only scenario I could seem them trading Kidd:
1. There's an understanding that he will be cut and come back.
2. They trade him for a player who's contract ends before 2010.
Still, I find that to be very, very unlikely. Especially with Terry being out for so long. You going to play almost a month with Barea as your only PG?
The plan, I assume, is to perhaps sign Kidd for next season, but other than that let his salary help the books for a possible 2010 free agent signing.
