Bluedude Sportstalk SPORTS SHORTS Take 112...J-KIDD gets the nod in the BK...WHO DAT loses potential leading RED JERSEY Collector on ACL Injury #BKNetsBiz #GeuaxSAINTSBiz

The Brooklyn Nets tried to make a splash and that they did. They wanted the "Zen Master" and get in line. They took their time trying to find something that clicks and for Nets Owner Mikhail Prokhorov they wanted a Big Name or someone the Logo could identify with as well as the BK as a proven winner. Well the Nets hire just retired Active NBA Legend Jason Kidd as their new Lead Man and I know one person who is elated and that's current Nets Point God and the COO of the Barclays...D-Will 8..@DeronWilliams. The Nets had their sights set on another Star in the making current Pacers Legend Brian Shaw as he didn't get the nod again. Kidd will reportedly bring former New Jersey Nets and just fired Pistons Coach Lawrence Frank on as Associate Lead Man. Congrats @RealJasonKidd.

Bad news coming out of the Bayou and Materie, Louisiana from Saints Camp. Newly acquired OLB from the Dallas Cowboys Victor Butler has a reported ACL Tea and will be sidelined the entire 2012 Season. New D-Coordinator Rob Ryan had Butler playing as their #1 Backer on the outside or as the Saints would call it their DeMarcus Ware. Good thing is the Saints have a month until training camp starts and they might get lucky and find another capable body.
