Jason Kidd News

It seems like just a few weeks ago New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets players were exchanging barbs in the press over which team owned New York.

Another great week in the NBA has been wrapped up and once again there are many important headlines to cover this week here at Buckets Over Broadway in my NBA Weekly Notebook.
