Kidd knows this team, and at this point, there's no PG in the league that is better suited to play with this team... Deron would be my next choice though... Everybody loves PG's that can average 20+ a game, but tell me, when's the last team a team won a championship with a scoring PG leading the way? It's been a long time...

Deron Williams has averaged 9.2 APG for his career and he's never played with scorers of Dirk or Dwight's caliber - he'd likely lead the league in assists if the three of them were on the same team.

You know, people used to say that Magic was the last great PG who won a ring, Stockton, Kevin Johnson, Nash, Kidd all had failed to do so. Then Kidd did when he actually got a great scorer next to him.

They used to say you need 3 great stars to win a ring, and then Dirk 2011 happened.

Lesson? There are no magic formulas.
