He averaged a triple double in the ECF in 2002.
He averaged 22 and 8 in the first round that year.
He averaged 23, 6 and 10 in the 2003 ECF.
It's fine to think he's overrated in comparison to other point guards but dudes just be talking now
Jason Kidd is one of the most overrated players ever

Leave De'Aaron Fox out of this!Am I wrong? De'Aaron Fox would've been competing for the #1 spot back then and he arguably isn't even a top 5 PG in the league.
And why are you acting like all of those guys were in their primes simultaneously while Kidd was playing?
nikka listed out like 4 elite point guards at that.
Like 10 of the guys now can fit into that category.
None of those PGs ever won the Clutch Player Of The Year Award!

Jamal Tinsley
And a Billups who ended his career the next season
No he didn’t that’s why he was much more efficient. Grandpa Stockton was shooting a higher percentage from the field than prime Kidd
I am not sure why Jason Kidds offensive talents were brought up as a 1st topic. He was a traditional pass-first point guard. He had an awkward jumpshot from day 1. He wasn't drafted to be that.
He was drafted to facilitate to Jimmy Jackson and Jamal Mashburn. Any baskets he scored in transition were icing on the cake.
He was a great rebounder from the guard position. He saw the floor exceptionally well and got everyone involved.
Y'all are looking at his career in the context of what point guards transitioned to.

Yes he did. I'm sure if he played next to a Top 3 PF and almost exclusively scored in full court settings Kidd would too.
You a whole-ass lie.
You can't find me 10 highlight passes from anyone on this list that are better than what Kidd did. Magic, yes. Nash, maybe but less flash. Jason Williams was reckless as hell...he was on his way outta the league until Hubie Brown saved him.
Freakin Rajon RONDO a better passer than Kidd? What. In. The. Entire. Hell.
Vs pre sheed trade Pistons and a "too old or too young" pacers squad with Ron Mercer getting very significant minutes, led by Jamal tinsley on the point?Now do Kidd's teammates
keep trying fam

You aren't serious on this topic if you think the Spurs were gonna win five straight NBA titles with Jason Kidd. I'm sorry.
Kid literally got murdered on defense during the 2008-2010 playoffs
Remember the chauncey and CP3 series
I said 2011 dumbass.
Nash never played defense his whole career.

Why won't you do his teammates?
Funny how you don't mention that Pistons team had back to back DPOY Ben Wallace or that they had the best record in the Eastern Conference that season
