What's funnier? J-Kidd's bush league move or the YES announcers saying nothing about it?

Eye of the beholder: What's bush league in one person's eyes is brilliant in another's.

Anyway, nothing I saw in that tape would justify punishing Jason Kidd.

Mike Fratello called it out immediately and said he'd do those sorts of these all the time as a coach.

Fratello admitted to doing it himself, they called it too. now they didn't say he should be in trouble for it but Its good enough that they noticed it was on purpose.

Love how Steve Blake tormented their huddle and they could not do anything.


And X was in there too.



This is comedy gold.


And one of the Nets coaches looked up and Blake was looking at his clipboard and he was like what the F.


Fair game if it wasn't a time out, right?

"Bush league" implies something that's done all the time at lower levels of competition. This was a pretty unique maneuver.

Kidd was a great player but so far a terrible coach.

If he missed, I think everyone would have said it was because of the stunt but I don't think there is any evidence that these icing the shooter or icing the kicker tricks lower players percentages.

Blake deserves a lot of credit for his awareness of the situation. He knew it wasn't a real timeout so he had every right to stand there in their huddle.

Now i'm not sure if he didn't relay that info to Pau or what, cuz Pau was super slow on the switch.

No, but it will remain on the internet forever and also one of the big reasons to laugh at the Nets for how desperate they are to win with their squad of old all star player players.

KG wanted to do his "tough guy" act but realized Blake was not one of those players who will back down

Yep. Steve Black and X-Man were right in the middle of that (bleep) huddle listening and disrupting. VETERAN MOVE!

Blake casually looking at their gameplan has to be the funniest thing that's happened all year. The Nets are complete joke.

"Cup slipped out of my hand while I was getting Ty," Kidd said of "Cupgate." "Sweaty palms. I was never good with the ball.
