To say the Jason Kidd didn’t exactly leave Brooklyn on the best terms would be putting it lightly. We’ll never get the whole story, but this he said-he said version is quite amusing.
Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov recently opened up about Kidd. Prokhorov hasn’t shared much about what happened with Kidd but he doesn’t exactly sound broken up about what transpired either.
“There is a nice proverb in English,” Prokhorov said. “Don’t let the door hit you where the Good Lord has split you.”
After laughter, Prokhorov continued.
“I think each side did what they thought was the best, and I like what we have now. I think our structure is optimal. We have a very strong, experienced coach, and a very strong GM in Billy King.” …
“I think we shouldn’t get mad, I think we should get even,” Prokhorov added. “And we’ll see it on the court.”
