Yao was like, “I’m not even mad, that’s amazing.”
Haha nice profile pic! Good ol’ 8-bit Kirby... just covered 5 of his 8-bit games for an episode, they’re really awesome!
Hahahaha legit top 1 play that’s hilarious
CAN'T B MAD!
Yao: you can see through me!
Exactly 🤣
“You don’t wanna be going to the bathroom, buying a coke or a hot dog when Jason Kidd is in the game” goddamn these early 2000’s commentators had some personality 😂
"Monta Ellis his family has to be mad at Jason Kidd" 😂😂😂
That one had me rolling 🤣
That was probably 96 or 97
@@silewis9396 Yup definitely the mid 90's. It was his first stint in Dallas. He was gone by 97.
That's what happens when you hire based on talent and not diversity (which should be by default anyway).
Jason Kidd was the first player that made me realize you can be the best player on the court and rarely shoot the ball. Dude had eyes in the back of his head.
And kuroko was the second best
man he was like a octopus
if you were to choose...Jason Kidd and Jason Williams, whom would you pick?
There's something about this name JASON!
Jason Kidd. Because he is an elite defender as well.
@@mjm135
Ask Magic Johnson about it 😮
Those spinning passes take an incredible amount of ball IQ and understanding of angles, timing, speed, anticipation, skill, rotation. Something only a lifetime of experience can bring.
That is why I gotta give him the edge over Magic as far as spectacular assists.
A commercial said. When I was young,the older kids never let 3shoot. I could only pass. Look at me now."
not over 5 players do that often. this is amazing talent and IQ
99.999% of players don't even attempt it.
@@thamiosmgtow3678 if players would attempt and fail they know they're going to see themselves on Shaqtin lol
Kidd ---> Carter was a freaking amazing connection.
It was . As a Vince fan when he got to New Jersey I was so happy for him cuz he finally had a player that would feed him all game without worrying about scoring . From day 1 they had a perfectly synced connection. They had played together on team usa too in 2000 and the connection there was unreal
What about K Martin
the timing on the alley-oops is insane
Could you imagine if Kidd would have played for the Raptors with a top shape Carter?
@@eljoelo2459 VC was scoring 25pts in New Jersey
Yao Ming's reaction at the end was priceless.
hahahaha
Dude had to laugh himself, the play was so unreal.
Haight the Great bnnb
meg iknnnnnh
For real. I forgot about that too. I've been shaking my head the whole video. I'm Wisconsin Lonnie and I approve this message ™
He combined flair, style with efficiency like no other in the history.
He dragged an average team to the finals TWICE
it's nice 2 meet u this makes sense + pls read my comment
1. They was far from average. They were real good. They just played better competotion in the finals
2. East was trash. Post Jordan east been trash. Thats what the Wast was about. One dude getting hot and taking a mediocre looking team to the finals. Dwight, A.I, Wade and his ancient team, Lebron, Pistons - etc
3. That does not take away from Kidds greatness. If he could shoot - he would be a top 3 PG IMO
@@erikpuka2627 ok
People give AI mounds of credit, and Kidd did a similar feat twice.
They weren’t great, but the East was garbage at the time, AND that team fit Kidd really well. They were really good defensively (Kidd’s best attribute was actually his defense-one of the top 3-5 PG defenders ever who could defend 1-3 easy 1-4 in some cases). Plus those Nets teams had some of the best lob finishers of the era. Kenyon Martin was a FREAK athlete on those Nets teams. Richard Jefferson was a really good athlete. Vince obviously was when he was there. Kittles was good out in transition too and a phenomenal defender. Keith Van Horn was a really good mobile/stretch 4 for that era.
Jason Kidd was always a treat to watch. Miss this era so much.
“The no look, which means he already looked.” - Commentator explaining Kidd’s passing.
I never thought about that while trying to find passing options and I’m sum1 that likes to dish dimes.
SuperMisteryMan01 you will be better and see the pass opportunity before it happens (?), or something like that. but you gotta play with someone who know how to play basketball properly and have a chemistry to predict what they gonna do and pass.
Delvin William well yea it’s different when u locate a teammate before u even look for a pass. The difference is like Jason Kidd he’s so creative wit passing and has good instinct to instantly make a decision like that. These passes he makes are jus so good n need a lot of touch and are on the right second too in order to get thru.
The already looked pass
SuperMisteryMan01 you gotta penetrate the lane in straight line, that way, your team will be able to know that whatever happens, u will be running straight fasttt... and then they (teammate) will sprint or position themself.
also when you sprint straight line, the defender will focus on you, leaving your teammate open..
I know the way I explain this may be too ‘simple’ for it to create a highlight tape like in the video, but honestly I watch every kidd’s highlight and this is how he do it...
and you just add creativity, talent, awareness if you have one, bcs not everyone has a knack as good as jason kidd, but you can still be good though...
People forget, Kidd carried the Nets to back to back finals.
And he turned K Martin into an all-star
Lost both?
Malo Man who wouldn’t lose to the Lakers back in their glory
@@urielarzola Don't forget the spurs who also beat them with prime Duncan, parker, manu. Nets could ran over anyone in fast breaks. But lakers and spurs have better big man and force them to play halfcourts. Imagine Kidd and Manu on the same team, they got crazy moves.
Kidd was a top 5 player in the league at that time.
You know that feeling when you're wide open for 1/2 a second and you have your hands up and you're shouting for the ball but then the window closes? Ya, Kidd's teammates never knew what that felt like.
Always expect the unexpected...
kobe team mates did
These kids today don’t understand, this is ART. The original Mr. Triple Double
Soo glad Kidd got a ring at the end of his career, he deserve it
If only my man Steve Nash just got one
@@BlermanBlerman-dz8mi Jason Kidd better than Steve Nash
@@nofes8863 what did you just say?
@@BlermanBlerman-dz8mi I rather had Jason Kidd on my team then John Stockton
@@nofes8863 i did not ask you that or cared ask
Yao Ming's reaction says it all.
he was like pff
Exper no he said ”oh my god”
Victor K
it was a throwback to the old meme
You said it perfectly
Yao said that was amazing...
"Take him to the streets, Monte Ellis his family has to be mad at Jason Kidd, that's not fair, you don't do that to my nephew" 😂😂😂
So many of these no look passers are simply phenomenal. The way he pulls the defenses is just brilliant
"The no look which means he already looked" 🤣👌
Absolute Legend, I was so happy when he came back to Dallas and got a ring.
FRFR
jjkelwl32k3ji3
I've always been a Nets fan & I was also happy he left & got a ring. Obviously they never won a ring in NJ, but damn they were fun to watch!
@@eopanther8 close 2 times with the Nets but just ran into 2 dynasty teams
I was there when they had that crazy gathering downtown dallas after they won
One of the things that makes him so great is his ability to look away and pass. His peripheral vision is unmatched. Most people were unaware of a pass being an option, even against someone known for passing. The art of hiding your intentions is not lost on Jason Kidd. That is why I love watching these videos.
This is the first time I'm actually watching his highlights and appreciating how good of a point guard this guy was. One of the goats.
You gotta be 17-22 or new to basketball lol
that Kidd-Carter connection ... you can't teach that
Dustin Miller and Jefferson and Martin lol
Jefferson was always in the right place
Nope Martin
And Kidd-Martin was amazing as well.
@@DeAngelo77 can honestly say that kidd built k-marts career from the brick up. lol
"LeBron James top 10 passes"
"Stephen curry's top 5 deepest shots"
"JASON KIDDS TOP 45 PASSES"
Fidence he’s a point guard u clown
They could have done top 100, would have been just as entertaining.
@@damianconcepts8436 steph is a shooter, and lebron is a so call facilitator. So who is a clown now?
Curry and LeBron are both still playing
@@examper22 whats your point? That they dont have enough highlights of them to make a top 45 video?
He might just be the best passer I’ve ever seen the precision is crazy
Jason Kidd is one of the best to ever do it, and his era of basketball was way better than what we have today. Kids today dont know. I live in NY and used to watch a lot of that old Nets team. Kidd, Jefferson, Martin, Carter, Kittles....damn
once Jason possesses the ball, his teammates start running at their full speed just because they believe and know that Jasons pass will succeed and their free running will lead to baskets!
That's why Jason has some targets to provide with passes during fast breaks.
kabe Nuri wow yeahh just noticed that too. i played many pickup games and the one that making me run at fullspeed on fastbreak are that one pure point guard that has big awareness and skill on passing.
because it feels like he will got me somehow, and i will be rewarded with some basket lol
Türk müsün
You're right!
Yeahhhh exactly!
J-KIDD is really a once in a lifetime player... out of all the super stars I've seen play the game. Jason Kidds the only player I've seen dominate the entire game without having to score buckets. Defense ,passing and leadership was off the charts... I miss watching him play... salute
ever heard of rajon rondo in prime plus all team defense
'dominate the entire game without having to score buckets'...EVER HEARD OF RODMAN?
John stockton
Manute Bol
He said it's the only player he "seen" maybe he just didn't watch other players
His vision, anticipation and precision was and still is unmatched imo
Even up until now.
Y Jason wiliams?
@@ethantorres5059 jwill was a force passer. That's why he got benched a lot forcing highlights passes
LeBron is right there bro
You see a lot of fancy passes that really aren't necessary, but almost every single pass in this video confused the defender and got the shooter a better shot. I don't think I've ever seen a collection like this before. Incredible.
He was always so solid. That ring as the starting point guard near the end of his career really solidified his legacy.
Kidd, Carter, Jefferson, Martin... Just amazing! Old times, great attacks against tough defense...
Damn. I never realized how nice his passes were. This man sees the whole court at all times. His awareness is insane.
Kidd and white chocolate were so creative with the assists good times back then
Williams not even in the same class as Kidd as a passer tbh.
@@robk6831 You stupid asf!!! J-Will is actually better and way more CREATIVE
@@robk6831had the white chocolate spent about another seven to eight seasons in the NBA, he might be. There's so much potential that Williams did not showed
7:29 was ridiculous, you have to slow it down to .5 or .25 speed to fully appreciate the brilliance. Momentum taking him out of bounds, half a second... still enough time for him to read the court and look off the defender to the wrong way and make the pass after waiting for the defender to bite on his lookoff and make the pass a no-looker just in case the lookoff didn't work. Calculated and executed all of that in half a second
Man he was an unbelievable passer, with flair too
Then strength to throw that bullet while turning away and falling back 😵💫
NBA players are so strong, people used to call them all skinny twigs have no idea, they’re made of steal.
Look at his teammates run the floor on the break, they know JKidd's gonna feed ya somehow, someway. 1st ballot HOFer, glad he won his championship.
FACTS 💯 💯
they gave him the ball and ran hard as hell every time. They knew someone was getting a dunk on the break.
@Keyboard Legend It starts in practice. I can guarantee that each of those guys caught a pass to the face on more than one occasion in practice. They learned real damn quick to get their hands up come game-time.
Those early 2000’s Nets were a lot of fun to watch
Bleed Green every team Kidd went to, in his prime (DAL, PHO, NJ), he would make them hell of fun to watch.
They used to be my favorite team during that time.
I missed that period of NBA..:/
2002-2007 Nets were my favorite
They were my fave too 😔
awesome dude, fantastic player. glad he was part of the legendary run.
Kidd,Jason Williams,cp3,white chocolate,rondo,Nash,and ginobili really made passing and getting assists super fun to do and watch.
Those other guys isn’t on Kidd’s level.
No disrespect to Magic, but this boy was a Wizard.....
No shade but UA-cam MJ passing videos lol. I love Kidd but Magic passes defy logic
Guess who kidd grew up admiring.
@@jamaalshelton6793 Yeah. Magic was the best passer in history. I can say by far too.
@@211sheem Jason williams. By far.. not assists per game just best passes ever. He has a 15 min passing highlight tape on UA-cam. Check it out God bless.
pistol pete
He isn't talked about nearly enough. That Nets team was so nasty though.
Joe Stroud that team was trash and played in arguably the worse conference of all time besides the 80s Western Conference
Joe Stroud WORD!
MrBrenman21 The Nets of 2001-02 feasted on mediocre Eastern teams for that defensive rating. Yet when they played the Lakers in the 2002 Finals, their defensive rating jumped from 99.5 to 116+.
The best team the Nets faced, the Celtics, ranked 18th in offense and won 49 games.
Meanwhile, the Lakers faced a 61 win team, a 58 win team and 49 win team...in the first round! That team, the Blazers, had a notably better offensive ranking than the Pierce Celtics, and a higher ranking in SRS.
The early 90s East was about as impressive as Jason Kidd's jumper.
As far as telling others to shut up, I can tell you're foolish enough to believe that having the last word is akin to winning an argument. A great marker of a moron.
Be sure to prove me right with another asinine response about the "tough" Eastern conference of the early 00s.
MrBrenman21 They played the West 34% of the time -- that means they feasted on weak East comp in 2/3 of their games, helping to drive up their stats.
You also need to quit lying about the 2003 Pistons -- a team that was not the same as their 2004 iteration, starting with the lack of Rasheed Wallace.
In fact, the Pistons were a team that won fewer than 60% of their games before the Wallace trade in 2004; after they won over 80%. The Nets did not defeat the same team in 2003.
The idea that the 2003 pre-Rasheed Pistons were better than the 2003 Spurs is laughable.
As far as fags, you're the one pulling information from your ass, all so you can fit a certain object up it: namely, your own head.
Innumerate moron.
MrBrenman21 A technically "weak" team you called a contender, originally, while pretending that the pre-Rasheed Wallace Pistons were the same as the Pistons with Wallace.
The point of the whole conversation is that the Nets were an incredibly weak Finals team, and therefore Kidd's "achievement" in taking them there is an accident of conference. If he played with this team in the West, they'd be lucky to make it to the 2nd round.
Let me explain, since you're a bit slow on those numbers.
The Nets of 02 were 17-11 against the West -- a 60% winning percentage. Against the East they were 35-19 -- a 65% winning percentage.
Without considering the fact that in-conference schedules are not as balanced as inter-conference (they played each West team exactly two times), the Nets would have likely won fewer than 50 games if they were in the West.
If you directly translate the Nets' record to the Western bracket, they would have played the 57 win Mavericks in the first round -- a team far better than any they faced in the East. And a team that record states was better than they were.
If they had somehow upset the Mavs, they would have faced the 61 win Kings in the second round.
Further, if we translate their win % against the West into a full season, they likely would have had a record about as good as Portland's -- 49 wins and a first round date with the Lakers.
The same Lakers team that swept them.
This team would have been, quite possibly, a first round out in the Western Conference. That's how much stronger the West was.
But keep talking: your replies become more ridiculous as you go. It's like watching a half-literate boy drown in text form, then discover his father's a monkey. Tragic.
Just as predicted.
.. the precision, the anticipation, the timing, the continuity and fluidity, the variety and technique! just awesome!
This video was satisfying to watch. Crazy how great of a playmaker he was he truly made a lot of mediocre guys into better players. He didn’t even have to score, the teams knew it too but knew how encouraged the guys felt to do their best when given the ball and that in itself was terrifying for defenses. A TRUE POINT GOD
Jason Kidd could go blind and still have 14 assists
And unironically I have 14 likes
he could hear foot steps and use his nose instead lol.
And manage to still smack his wife
he would see that coming too tho
@@jayekaye6641 LMAO
Kidd had a game awareness that not many player had achieved and the ability to make fast decisions. It was like he was able to keep perfect track of the other 9 players in the court.
If without the other angle replays, I couldn't see who received the ball.
After watching this I think it’s disrespectful to compare Lonzo Ball to Jason Kidd. Damn... he was unique!
Ivan Mendoza you heard the commentors say they're daring him to shoot yes?Flashy passes don't mean you're better than someone else. The comparisons are very valid. They both couldn't shoot coming in, but impacted the game all around. It's pretty exact to me.
Star Wizzy exactly they are the new mj and kobe in therm of similar game but lonzo is less flashy, maybe cuz he’s a rookie and he play safe
ua-cam.com/video/Vo8wNzzymK0/v-deo.html
It’s not really two good pass first players both struggle shooting early bigger sized guards it’s not a bad comparison but on the flip side I can understand what you mean
What do you mean? They are both high IQ, great court vision, pass-first point guards. Although Lonzo needs to develop much more before comparing to Kidd’s basketball genius. Hopefully, he doesn’t develop Kidd’s off-court mischief.
One of the most underrated NBA legends of all time... Kidd is among the 5 greatest players at his position... among the 10 greatest players of the 2000s decade... and was the greatest defensive player at his position
Church Service GP>kidd defensively
I wouldn't call Lamar Odom a legend, but I always felt like he could have been the man on a team but never was. Seriously, every time he came off the bench for the Lakers, good stuff happened.
Who else personally underachieved to win with great teams?
Church Service Magic, Curry, Nash, Isiah, Kidd. Yup
@@baselinejordan1744 Kidd is second all time in steals
Whats impressive about kidd is how he sets a screen and assist at the same time whenever he makes it on the paint
People forget how much of a impact he had in his prime 2 finals appearances with the nets back to back
Nets were good. They had the misfortune of having to play against the two greatest teams of the decade in those finals, two of the greatest coaches of all time, and three of the ten greatest players of all time. Duncan’s game 6 against them (2 blocks shy of a quadruple double) was an all-timer.
He's like the Xavi of basketball. It's incredible how he finds the perfect space between the players so well, all under pressure too.
*Those passes were beautiful, tears*
Who the hell is Xavi?

Was too young to see prime Magic Johnson, but glad I got to see Jason Kidd the entire way through!!! Closest player to Magic passing and court vision wise!!
The clip starting at 9 seconds in is great. If you look closely, you will see that Kidd threw off THREE defenders by looking back toward the three point line, then hits the cutter with a no look behind the back pass for an easy bucket. Incredible show of basketball IQ, and Kidd was probably one of the smartest players ever
every time when there is a steal, VC and Jefferson were like 100m race for 2 points. :)
And Kenyon Martin

@Sam Zheng do you not what facts or stats mean?
Or individual accolades? Do you know any of these terms?
The best combo of finesse and efficiency
of all times, Mr. Jason Kidd
11:07 is truly a testament to how greatness cannot be contained. And the dumbfounded and then humorous look on Yao's face further exemplifies that notion.
That look on Yao's face. It's priceless. 😁😁
That’s his regular face 😐
What a genius of passing balls! The teammates are so comfortable catching balls from Kidd.
When basketball was actually fun to watch. J Kidd was the best passer I've ever seen in my life.
Me watching through all these: Yeah, they all look like number 1's
Finally get to number 1: ...Wow
I wished back then that 2K (or NBA Live, I don't remember what I was playing during that time) would allow alley-oop passes from inbound because it would look sick and better than 0.6 buzzer beaters. Jason Kidd made it possible and I was in awe when I saw this on TV. Then, 2K added it on their next NBA 2K installment. XD

"It's no-look pass, which means... *he already looked."* 👌😎
Mark Jackson commentary is gold "you don't do that to my nephew!"
3:56 what the hell is that level of awareness.
He probably didn't expect to be bumped by that opposing team yet he reacted perfectly. Stopped trying to possess the ball and decided to pass it. He pass it to someone he only saw moving for less than a second
8:07 this type of athleticsm and creativity would work in every sport.
We need more guys like jason kidd and jokic in the court🔥
The last clip though👁️👄👁️
Rockets definitely made the best decision of letting yao ming defend and distract jason kidd in those last seconds. But who would've thought...
That pass is just way too perfect
VC on of my fav players of all time - him and JKidd was a dream of a duo but that Kidd & KMart connection was also really entertaining and RJ in his prime was a beast too
They never won, but damn how I loved the flying circus of the nets
Literally a Flying Circus. 💯
never won a chip but they were pretty good for 5 years
Kobe wouldn’t let them win.
you spelled shaq wrong jackass
Kidd with Carter and Martin would have definitely been a good show
Kenyon Martin. One of my favorite in game finishers of back in the day.
My favorite player....followed hid career from college to the nba....glad he got a ring with the team that drafted him!
Wow.. Such great vision feel and accuracy. With both hands. You can tell he practices a lot. Great content. Salute to you J Kidd
I love how Martin always kicked his legs randomly on those alley-oops for no reason. lol

Jwill almost got it though.
There are a few on J-Wills highlights where he got Kidd too

A great point guard can be an effective floor manager that ensures player movement and spacing match plays they are supposed to execute. He can also be a "last mile" deliverer of exciting assists like Jason Kidd!
6:10 That one made me spit my drink, good work commentator 👌
Kinda the most underrated legend of all time. Kinda
Definitely!! That nets team back to back run was so underrated.
Nah Alex English
He is very good rated legend, HOF, and best PG in his era
Dirk
Itz Aiden not really in hindsight he a was a shot bricker
I remember seeing Kidd in high school @ some invitational in Myrtle Beach, SC. He played the exact same way back then. He came out the box like that
Legend!
I saw him play at Cal. He was astounding.
Marion, Kittle, Kenyon, Jefferson, Vince... with Kidd, they all look so unstoppable.
He's my all time favorite player!! I was so happy wen he came back to Dallas and got his ring here
There should be a special award for this kind of brilliance.
There is such an award, it's called the Hall of Fame.
That bowling ball pass though...
Can't do that too much can easily result in face plant
Hashim Warren classix
Kidd ... one of the best point guard.
He got great vision.... basketball instinct....pass so crisps.
It's refreshing to see so many actual no-look passes. A lot of ones I've seen recently are stare the recipient down then look away as you're passing
god damn i love the power Kenyon Martin had in his prime
The dunk he did over Jermaine O'Neal was one of the worst I've ever seen.
Christopher G. at first I thought he was Carter
yeeeah and so much swagger too when he lands after his dunks !
Forreal!!!!
Kenyon Martin was trash. Kidd made him look decent just like Nash made Amare
I remember how I was excited to see him start a fastbreak back when I was in middle school, he is my fav player. I stopped watch NBA after Kidd retired
You can tell easily any team the kidd play with, you can see his teammates so comfy by his appearence
Those Nets teams in Jersey with Kidd were a lot of fun to watch. They were like a west coast team on fast breaks but with east coast style of physical defense. Kidd is a top 5 PG in my opinion.
Best PG of the 21st century! He carried New Jersey Nets to the finals back2back and helped Dallas win a championship!
I love J Kidd and maybe he did help but if Dirk didn't find a different deminsion that year they probley would have lost thier second finals
Steve Nash has something to say about that

He even got me fooled with those passes from a court side view. I can´t imagine being on the floor trying to defend him.
I went to Jason Kidd’s basketball camp in Phoenix, circa 1999-2000. Great guy!
In the early 90s, I had a subscription to Sports Illustrated. There was a section near the back for top prospects. One month, there was a pic of an 18ish Jason Kidd surrounded by dozens of offer letters from most major universities in the country. I remember thinking to myself, "this is a death sentence before he begins". How many top prospects actually succeed and meet expectations compared to the ones that don't? Jason Kidd did not disappoint. He lived up to the hype and then some. Great player!
0:45 - 0:48 Perfect pass + Perfect dunk. Watching Jason Kidd's pass never get old.
I love how the crowd is already in awe and cheering before the shot is made
made me love the game and for that I'll always be eternally grateful. my favorite player of all-time
That 02 and 03 nets was excited to watch even he had vince too
Jason Kidd is the reason Vince Carter is my Favorite player the Nets were not the Best but definitely the Highlight Of New Jersey.
