Two golds cooler than one NBA title?

Bookmark and Share

USA point guard Jason Kidd is trying to become the seventh American to win two Olympic gold medals at the Beijing Olympics.

But is that cooler than winning an NBA title, that elusive NBA title, J-Kidd?

"Well I haven't won one but I'd like to have an NBA title," said Kidd, who took the New Jersey Nets to two NBA Finals without getting a ring."But I guess if I have two gold medals that's better than having an NBA championship. My goal right now is to win a gold medal then get to the finals with my team and get an NBA title."

The Dallas Maverick will start at the point for the U.S but being 35 with 14 NBA seasons isn't shielding Kidd from getting the business from younger teammates.
