As Nets finally trade Kidd, Carter steps in spotlight

Now that star point guard and Nets team captain Jason Kidd has finally been traded, after a brief stall following the announcement Wednesday, we can expect some editing of the Atlantic Yards web site to reflect his departure.

Some other players will have to praise the new development in Brooklyn. Most likely candidate: Vince Carter. Already, as I predicted, Carter has become the face of the franchise, at least according to the Nets store.
