NBCSports.com
By Frank Isola
The league keeps waiting for the New Jersey Nets to make a big move. GM Rod Thorn is contemplating a move that would send Jason Kidd to the L.A. Lakers. But owner Bruce Ratner and Thorn are having second thoughts about trading the face of their franchise.
NoLandGrab: A sign of how freakin' tone deaf the NBA is about the conduct of its players — Caring Bruce and Rod Thorn should be more concerned about SAVING "the face of their franchise."
Kidd probably won't be rolled out again as a role model for kids in Brooklyn any time soon, that is, unless folks are adding philandering and domestic abuse to their kids' list of future accomplishments (see The Smoking Gun, "Wife: Jason Kidd A Serial Abuser, Adulterer").
