Jason Kidd Retires

[Ridders]

Jason Kidd announced his retirement Monday after 19 seasons as one of the best passing and rebounding point guards in NBA history.

The thought of retirement first began to creep into the New York Knicks point guard's mind around the All-Star break. But he didn't think seriously about it until recently. Over the weekend at a wedding in Georgia he made the decision.

One of the old guard gone. Kidd's been around for as long as I've known about the NBA. Was a gun during his Nets days.

Kidd and Grant Hill won co rookie of the year award.. forgot about that. Was some great players in the early 90's to mid 90's drafts.
