Good Work If You Can Get It

I really don't care much about the Jason Kidd trade back to Dallas but I love this nugget: Part of the deal, because of crazy NBA salary cap rules, will include the Mavericks coaxing Keith Van Horn out of retirement, signing him to a $4 million deal, and then trading him to the NJ Nets. The Nets don't want him to play, they just need the contract to help them do more trades down the way. (I really don't understand it.) But most people think that Van Horn will be with the Nets for only one month, never play, and then walk away with $4 million. Good times.

(OK, and I wanted to post this pic of Jason Kidd.)

(And, on an unrelated note, if you like crowd photos, Where's Waldo, and have a weird sense of humor, you'll love this.)
