If a return to the Mavs doesn't happen for Kidd, he wouldn't mind being a mentor to Lin, who flourished this past season with the Knicks. "That would be a lot of fun to be able to help a young player like that,'' Kidd said. "He has all the tools -- we saw that before he got hurt. "I'll just try to help him understand that it's a long season and he has to pace himself, but he's got to work extremely hard. And also kind of share the things that has helped me be successful, and hopefully it can help him become a better player.''
