“(Jason) Kidd with a jump shot.”
Van Coleman
“I think they belong under the dangerous category. I just look at the three guys ? Vince Carter Jason Kidd, and (Richard) Jefferson. There's no better combination in the league at 1, 2 and 3. When you have that in the league you can win big.”
Doc Rivers
“I think it's tough to bet against a healthy Jason Kidd. That's just what I believe. Especially with the surrounding cast they have.”
Brian Scalabrine
“Obviously, they've got Jason Kidd, who opens up the court so much, Vince Carter on one wing and Richard Jefferson on the other wing. That's a tough task. We've got to play great team defense, learn from each other and see what happens after that.”
Jermaine O'Neal
“I like to credit Jason Kidd and our staff because it was their suggestion. I think that's what it's about in terms of unselfishness and trust. Richard did a great job.”
Lawrence Frank
“I like the way they run up and down, get up and down the floor; Jason Kidd delivers the ball. That would be my kind of game, running the floor and stuff like that. Obviously, I'm with the Clippers now, so we'll worry about that later.”
Chris Wilcox
“Richard Jefferson is going to be more involved in Game 2. We know that Jason Kidd is going to be more involved from a scoring standpoint in terms of his aggressiveness. Carter, you can talk about his bad shooting, but he still had 31 points. He missed a lot of point-blank shots he normally makes. They're going to be more balanced in their attack.”
Rick Carlisle
