Tim Bontemps

Funny line from Kidd during his chat with writers today: "My phone bill is apparently high right now but it’s for a good cause."

Fred Kerber

#Nets Jason Kidd said Tim Grgurich, who has been rumored for his staff, is not on the list of candidates

Fred Kerber

#Nets Jason Kidd said previous reports of his court date tomorrow for DUI rap on Long Island were inaccurate. Hearing is next month he said

Tim Bontemps

Not the best picture, but Mariano Rivera, Don Mattingly and Willie Randolph chatting inside Yankee Stadium. http://t.co/B0OSN71MYq

Mike Mazzeo

No decision on #Nets assistant jobs has been made

Mike Mazzeo

Kidd and Mo #Nets #Yankees http://t.co/v62eCQB9hu

Tim Bontemps

Arkansas football coach Bret Bielema here at Yankee Stadium today.

Mike Mazzeo

Jason Kidd has interviewed Frank and Rogers for assistant spots #Nets

Fred Kerber

#Nets JKidd sed he has interviewed only LFrank and RRogers for staff. Nothing firm on either

Tim Bontemps

Jason Kidd hanging out with CC Sabathia and Andy Pettitte on the field at Yankee Stadium. http://t.co/fXHZn04ZJR

Tim Bontemps

Kidd says he doesn't plan to meet with Tim Grgurich. Said he's not sure where his name came from.

Tim Bontemps

Kidd says he's met with two assistant candidates: Roy Rogers and Lawrence Frank. Plans to have more interviews soon.

Tim Bontemps

Hey, basketball Twitter: is there a site that keeps track of how much of their $3 mil allotment teams have spent in trades in a given year?

Tim Bontemps

Hopefully you guys will give it a listen. Think you'll enjoy it.

Fred Kerber

#Nets JKidd throwing out 2d G 1st pitch at #Yankees Last yr JJohnson did Gave him grip tip, throws strike Thanks "real old guy" in interview

Tim Bontemps

Spent an hour talking about the NBA Finals, writing on deadline and the Nets with my pal @talkhoops this afternoon. Podcast will be up later

Tim Bontemps

ESPN's @Chad Ford has the Nets taking Tony Snell in his latest mock; @Jonathan Givony has the Nets taking Gorgui Dieng in his.

Tim Bontemps

Here's the second-to-last installment in my Nets season in review blog series. Today's post is on C.J. Watson: bit.ly/12VEfGq

Tim Bontemps

To be clear: Kidd will be throwing out the first pitch and on during the third inning of the night game of the doubleheader.

Rod Boone

Dray yucking it up with Billy King. #Nets http://t.co/gtagDsEmkf

Rod Boone

Look who else is here. That'd be @Andray Blatche. #Nets http://t.co/Cimlkiw8km

Rod Boone

Deron Williams in the house today at #Nets predraft workouts. Jason Kidd in his office working. http://t.co/OHEwc8Zn8q

Tim Bontemps

Kidd also is going to be in the booth with @RealMichaelKay for the third inning of the game, which can be seen on My9.

Tim Bontemps

I'm told Kidd watched present for all of the action this morning. Fans can see him tonight throw out the first pitch at Yankee Stadium.

Tim Bontemps

Did see both Deron Williams and Andray Blatche in the building.

Tim Bontemps

And for those asking, didn't see Jason Kidd here. Don't know if he was present for any of the workouts or not.

Rod Boone

At #Nets predraft workout in Jerz. Murray State's Isaiah Canaan didn't work out today due to ankle injury.

Mike Mazzeo

Tim Bontemps

Believe it's an ankle injury, but not 100 percent sure. Former Rutgers player Gregory Echenique did work out, however.

Tim Bontemps

Isaiah Canaan didn't work out for the Nets today because of an injury.

Mike Mazzeo

King initially 'resistant' to Kidd as coach espn.go.com/blog/new-york/… #Nets

Mike Mazzeo

Also here working out again: Dray Blatche #Nets

Mike Mazzeo

Here at #Nets pre-draft workouts: Deron Williams and Tony DiLeo. Don't see J-Kidd.

Jerry Stackhouse

2 hrs. in 3 more to go!! #pitmaster http://t.co/WYG5MRMrnu

Jerry Stackhouse

The coals are getting hot!! #pitmaster#carolinastyle http://t.co/e5lKixZWjT

Tim Bontemps

Also, Dwyane Wade is soooooo lucky Miami came back and won. He almost single-handedly cost them that game late in regulation.

Tim Bontemps

Quick question: last Finals game that good was ... When?

Tim Bontemps

Game 7 Thursday. Going to be so much fun. Fitting way to end this incredible season.

Kris Humphries

Coach Popovich is epic on this post game interview. #dontaskquestions

Kris Humphries

What a game! Can't ask for a more entertaining finals #game7

Tim Bontemps

Other than the question about not fouling up three late. Predictably said that he doesn't.

Tim Bontemps

These questions are so bad in this Popovich press conference. So horribly bad.

Tim Bontemps

Manu Ginobili finished this game -16. 2-for-5, eight turnovers. Dwyane Wade finished this game -21.

Tim Bontemps

And what a game. Pretty sure there's no way Game 7 can match it – likely will be a blowout. But one of the best games I've ever seen.

Tim Bontemps

Regardless of calls, Spurs blew this one. Up five with 30 seconds left? Have to close it out. Two offensive rebounds, two missed FTs.

Stefan Bondy

I need to take a shower after that game.

Tim Bontemps

I don't like playing the referee game at all, but those are two huge no-calls.

Rod Boone

Ridiculous game. The ultimate reality show.

Tim Bontemps

Chris Bosh clobbered Danny Green.

Mike Mazzeo

Chris Bosh. Game 7. Fun.

Rod Boone

Ginobili got fouled.

Tim Bontemps

Obvious foul. That's the call Dwyane Wade got against the Mavericks in 2006.

Mike Mazzeo

Chris Bosh. Defensive plays.

Tim Bontemps

That was a hilariously bad call by Ken Mauer, making up for my earlier tweet. Huge play by Green in transition on D once again.

Tim Bontemps

Duncan 0-5 and hasn't scored since the end of the third quarter.

Tim Bontemps

Missed free throws killing the Spurs.

Mike Mazzeo

To quote Thrift Shop: This is (bleeping) awesome.

Mike Mazzeo

Offensive rebounds folks. Offensive rebounds.

Tim Bontemps

Regardless of how this one turns out, LeBron James has done what he was supposed to tonight. Incredible performance.

Stefan Bondy

Wade ruined LeBron's groove with that silly post up.

Stefan Bondy

LeBron James. That's just a shame.

Tyshawn Taylor

Let the bronny slander begin

Rod Boone

LeBron has to shoot that. Can't try to make that pass there.

Tim Bontemps

And LeBron went from having the ball every time down to Wade dominating it. Not a coincidence.

Stefan Bondy

Greatest clutch performance from an innocent victim of a brawl between Drake and Chris Brown.

Rod Boone

Tony Parker. Onions.

Tim Bontemps

Two insane shots by Parker, but Heat have fallen apart offensively since Wade came back in. One horrible possession after another.

Mike Mazzeo

Remember when the #Spurs were gonna move Tony Parker to SG so they could sign J-Kidd to a max deal?

Rod Boone

Bosh flopping again.

Tim Bontemps

In Games 4 and 6, Ginobili is a combined -40.

Tim Bontemps

Spurs are missing a ton of shots they normally make, including that Duncan miss. Might just be out of gas.

Stefan Bondy

Mike Miller's shoe is upset that LeBron's headband is now the storyline.

Tim Bontemps

Again: Spoelstra benched his star. Popovich should have done the same with Manu.

Tim Bontemps

If Spurs go on to lose this one, those first three minutes of the fourth will haunt them for a long, long, long time.

Stefan Bondy

This is that symbolic moment when LeBron sheds his headband, embraces his baldness, and takes over the game

Tim Bontemps

Spoelstra has benched Wade here, already sitting Haslem. You have to question whether Popovich should do same with Manu. He's been awful.

Tim Bontemps

Hard to think this one didn't just end, even with the score this close. Incredible sequence of events.

Rod Boone

What a sequence by LeBron.

Mike Mazzeo

The best player in the world has shown up.

Stefan Bondy

LeBron has no confidence in his jumper. They're begging him to shoot and he won't.

Mike Mazzeo

Two desperate teams. Love this.

Mike Mazzeo

No knees. One shoe. Who cares.

Tim Bontemps

And that was about as bad a start to the fourth as San Antonio could have had. Just horrible defense.

Tim Bontemps

Huge basket by Splitter.

Tim Bontemps

Huge start, and a huge mistake by Ginobili. Can't leave Chalmers.

Tim Bontemps

My prediction: first three minutes of fourth quarter (with Parker, Duncan on the bench) determine this game. If Spurs can maintain, they win

Rod Boone

Here we go. Fourth quarter time.

Tim Bontemps

Not saying it was wrong, but you knew the Heat were getting a call on a drive sometime soon.
