Kidd skipping night session, irking Nets

Jason Kidd is refusing to attend night sessions during the New Jersey Nets' two-a-day practices at training camp, and he doesn't care if the team fines him for it.

"They want me to be here — they have every right — but my best thing is to try to get healthy, rehab and push forward. That's my stance," said Kidd, who had knee surgery over the summer and is at least three weeks away from practicing. "Me sitting here for three hours is not helping me rehab."

Kidd ended a long public silence and made his displeasure with the Nets clear this week after an offseason that included the cost-cutting trades of Kenyon Martin and Kerry Kittles. Kidd and Alonzo Mourning said the Nets have no chance of winning a championship.

Coach Lawrence Frank wouldn't discuss Kidd's skipping night sessions, even to clarify whether Kidd's absences were excused or unexcused. Team president Rod Thorn did not return a telephone call seeking comment.

Kidd said the team had not informed him or his agent that he would be fined.

Under the collective bargaining agreement, players can be penalized $2,500 for each of the first two practices they miss and $5,000 for each subsequent absence.

The Nets held only one practice Thursday, but another two-a-day was scheduled for Friday — and Kidd was adamant he wouldn't attend the night session. New Jersey is holding training camp at its regular practice facility, and most Nets players are staying at their own homes.

Kidd said he is rehabilitating his knee seven days a week and plans to consult with his doctors again in three weeks to determine whether he'll be cleared for more strenuous activity.

"If they want to fine me for not sitting here for three hours to watch practice, they're the boss and I'm the employee," Kidd said. "I'm going to stay with my stand and don't come at night. I've already expressed that it's because I'm rehabbing.

"I'm not going out of my way to not come, but it's just (that) part of the day doesn't bring me down this way."

In Kidd's operation, small holes were drilled in his left knee to form scar tissue that replaces cartilage.

Several NBA players, including Chris Webber, Allan Houston, Penny Hardaway and Jamal Mashburn, were slow to recover from the surgery, but Kidd's procedure was performed on a different, non-weightbearing part of his knee.

"It has been explained very clearly that this injury is different from some of the others we've seen, yet at the same time it's still surgery," Frank said.

In Kidd's absence, veterans Travis Best and Jacque Vaughn and second-year guard Zoran Plananic are vying for the starting job at point guard.

"Is it hard? Yeah, because this is my job," Kidd said before throwing in a dig at management for breaking up a team that won two of the last three Eastern Conference titles.

Kidd expected the Nets to remain a contender when he spurned a free-agent offer from San Antonio in 2003 and re-signed with New Jersey for six years. But now he's a member of a diminished team that dealt away its two best defenders and fast-break finishers.

"At the same time," Kidd said of watching and waiting, "I can try to reflect and look at things and work on my half-court preparation, because we're not going to be a fast-breaking team."

New Jersey plays its first exhibition game next Thursday against the New York Knicks.
