Marc Stein：目前不清楚的是，独行侠方面最终会如何回应尼克斯队的电话。他们当然可以直接拒绝尼克斯队对基德的请求，但本周我们尝试直接确认这种态度，但没有成功。
尼克斯是否还有想要积极争取的教练人选，或者是否愿意向达拉斯提供选秀权补偿，以试图让基德摆脱目前的合同，这在整个联盟都是一个巨大的谜团。
Also unclear: How Dallas would ultimately respond to the Knicks' phone call. The Mavericks could certainly swat away the Knicks' request for permission, but attempts this week by The Stein Line to outright confirm such a posture have been unsuccessful.
It is a great source of intrigue leaguewide whether the Knicks have other targets they plan to pursue aggressively … or if they would be willing to offer draft compensation to Dallas to try to free Kidd from his current contract.
