NOW I AIN’T SAYING SHE’S A GOLD DIGGER…

Just what the Garden State doesn’t need — another scandal.

J. Kidd and wife Joumana pose for Sports Illustrated during happier times

New Jersey Nets point guard Jason Kidd is used to running the court. But yesterday, he showed he can run to court, too. The 33-year-old floor general, who leads the team in assists and, oddly enough, rebounds this season (maybe one of the many reasons they’re five games under .500?), reportedly paid a visit to the Bergen County Courthouse to file a domestic complaint against his wife Joumana. According to the New York Post, the seven-time NBA All-Star with a 6-year, $99 million contract — who pled guilty to spousal abuse charges brought against him by his wife back in early 2001 — is bringing the complaint against the Budweiser model-turned-housewife after she allegedly showed up courtside at a recent Nets game to berate him. And the marital problems between the two may stem from Kidd’s active interest in the New York City nightlife recently.

No one’s talking yet and police are refusing to comment. So let the allegations and accusations begin. This is Jersey, after all…

Extra Points:
Why hasn’t this received more press?
Are the Cleveland Cavaliers really the Eastern Conference’s only chance?
Why isn't there a standout NBA Rookie of the Year candidate this season?

Kidd should forget his wife and try fighting his opponents on the court, like the Knicks have. Then maybe the team will get some fire back in them.
