Big Three Once Again the Big Issue

by Net Income on Nov 24, 2007 4:18 PM EST

Ira Winderman and Wendell Maxey, writing for HoopsWorld, take a double-edged look at the Nets' Big Three with Winderman saying it's time to call it a day and move on before Brooklyn. The Heat beat writer adds that the team should have done so last year. Meanwhile, Richard Jefferson tells Maxey his two "Hall of Fame" teammates make him a much better player. Other writers question Kidd's commitment to New Jersey.

Kidd has done everything, other people have to step up.

RJ should be getting respect!!! If he didn’t get injured the past 2 seasons, he might have become one of the most dominant wing players in the NBA. This is the year RJ will prove to everyone just how good he can be.

Just noticed RJ is hitting 42.4% of his three point shots this season. That is what Nachbar and House hit last season.

RJ will be the key factor to us contending we are still a few bench players away from contending cause we need a full effort from everyone.

Who are the Nets going to trade Kidd for and get equitable value back? Does anyone here think Marcus will be ready to take over?

I do think they should split up, there is no big 3 unless you have a dominent big man.

6 years, 6 million media reports about Jason Kidd’s imminent departure from the Nets. Talk about beating a dead horse!!

Damn these Kobe-holics are annoying. it’s not going to happen so stop whining. J-Kidd already repented what he said.

Lets be realistic if we sent Kidd to the Lakers he’d be worse . Kobe does not need Kidd we don’t need Andrew Bynum. We need Nenad healthy, and Marcus Williams to back up- as soon as he is back get ready for the bandwagon riders.

Nets are dead without Kidd. He is not a scorer and never will be but his hustle and leadership is what keeps this team alive.

this ira dude needs to stop worrying about the nets and write about his own team. nets will be fine.

Ira should be more concerned about his pathetic Miami Heat.

For 6 years, we’ve had to deal with this stupid journalism.

Listen kidd is in great position I trully believe he can play till 40 like stockton did so he will play till his contract is over…Will he win or not we will have see but it doesn’t really matter cuz then he will join the best contender and with him they will win for sure. He will do the same thing Payton did.
