[Nets brass insist its future will contain Kidd.] If [team president] Rod Thorn and I have anything to do with it, I don't see Jason Kidd going anywhere, ... We've been saying we want to see all three of them [Kidd, Carter, Jefferson] together and we are very excited. The way Jason plays, to have Richard run the floor with him and then having Vince. We really think the future is real bright.
Everybody wants an athletic big, but the chances of getting an athletic big from someone are not that great.
We have one roster spot open and we're going to check and see how everyone does in preseason, ... There is a spot available if someone would show us that they're warranting that spot. Ricky's done a nice job. He's very explosive, can score the basketball. So it's been very interesting watching him in preseason.
We play in the Ivy League, where we're one of the better teams year-in and year-out. We play in a major metropolitan city. We play four games against Big 5 opponents every year. That has all the makings of a good job.
The kid would like to come over, but we haven't gotten into any talks with his team. There' a buyout situation, (We don't know) what his agent wants to do with him.
