For anybody out there who thinks bringing Jason Kidd to New York is a bad idea, I slap you with a ham.

Let’s take a look at 10 reasons why the Knicks MUST bring J Kidd to New York.

10. The Knicks suck. J Kidd is awesome.

9. J Kidd loves New York. New York loves J Kidd. I believe that’s a palindrome.

8. J Kidd fits perfectly into Mike D’Antoni’s run and gun system. Even better than Steve Nash.

7. Jason Kidd is one of the 5 greatest point guards to ever play this game. Say what you want, he’s a beast. The Knicks don’t have many top 5 anythings, except maybe the five worst contracts, or the five most out of shape players. Or the 5 worst draft picks in NBA history.

6. J Kidd still has gas in the tank. And it’s not 87. He’s not a “slasher” like Iverson, nor a half-court guy like Chris Paul. He doesn’t take a lot of abuse, and surprisingly, for a point guard, doesn’t even have the ball in his hands that much.

5. J Kidd pimps mad hoes.

4. I need a Kidd Knicks Jersey to hang to my Michael Jordan Knicks Jersey and Alex Ovechkin Rangers sweater.

3. Lebron James LOVES Jason Kidd. In fact, in an interview last year, Lebron was quoted as saying his two favorite basketball players of all-time are Penny Hardaway and Jason Kidd

2. Knicks don’t have time to develop young talent. Knicks need to win, and win now. Signing Kidd to a 3 year deal, at the mid-level price of 5.5 mil a year, is a steal. Then, when the Knicks steal Ricky Rubio from the TWolves, he’ll have a good mentor for a year.

1. Who else we gonna sign?

    He should stay with the Mavs for these two reasons: Dallas can offer him more money and they have no state income tax there

    How about so I don’t have to root for a wife beater in addition to rooting for a losing team? How’s that for a reason to stay in Dallas?

    • Comment on Rangers Trade For Jokinen by Jeff Zachowski
      You're obviously a student of the GOP school of debate, Rob. Why say anything intelligent when you can just misrepresent what the other side is saying and/or falsify what they've already said? First off, I am stating that an inability to judge a move in a vacuum would impair your credibility. It's up to you to decide whether or not that descri […]

      You're questioning my credibility to bash moves? I question your ability to judge any moves at all. 2 days after the Rangers made the very obvious disaster of signing Wade Redden to a crippling contract you emailed me and said that the Rangers were making your dreams come true. In another email you told me that you were never more excited about the Rang […]

      Come on, Rob. You wear your Sather Hatred like a chip on your shoulder. You're not the only one around here who hates the guy. But in order to have credibility when you bash moves, you have to be fair on the good ones. Did you ever think that he'd be able to unload the remaining FIVE years on Gomez's pact while not taking back salary beyond th […]

      This is only a good deal because it gets rid of Kotalik. I doubt Jokinen is going to make a difference. I can't congratulate Sather for making up for his own mistake when the biggest mistake, Redden, is still out there for the next five, ?, years. […]
    • Comment on This Week in Rangers Hockey (Jean Ratelle Edition) by Ben
      Jean Ratelle was not only a gentleman on the ice but off it as well. Living in Long Beach, I grew up with the Rangers as my neighbors and Jean was always happy to give the local kids sticks and pucks so we could play in the street. His time with the Rangers was the golden age of hockey. I saw him fight only once and even that he did like a gentleman. No one […]
