No Kidd-ing
Elyria Chronicle-Telegram
J-Kidd doesn't think Jay-Z has much of a chance of convincing LBJ to play for BCR (Bruce C. Ratner).
Mavericks guard Jason Kidd — an Olympic teammate of LeBron James — chimed in on the never-ending James to New York in 2010 speculation, saying, “I would say (no) right now. He’ll stay in Cleveland.”
Kidd made the statement on Dan Patrick’s nationally syndicated radio show, where he also laughed off talk that James would join rap mogul and close friend Jay-Z with the New Jersey Nets.
“To play in Jersey?” he said using an incredulous tone.
Jay-Z is a part-owner of the Nets, who announced plans to move to a $1 billion arena complex in Brooklyn three years ago, but haven’t put a single shovel in the ground in the New York City borough. Their managing partner is Bruce Ratner of Cleveland’s famed Forest City business empire.
