Jason Kidd

I don't have tapes of meditation, but I put on the meditation station. I did as a player, too. I used to always play the game before the game happened. As a coach, I do the same thing.

I've got to play free agency out, and I've got to look at all of my options.

My biggest fear had always been getting hurt, and not being able to leave the game as a player on my own terms.

Recently, I was in Bernalda, my dad's ancestral home town in Italy. He has just refurbished a palazzo and turned it into a hotel, so we had my sister's wedding there. It was beautiful.

There's never been anything I didn't love that I didn't connect with on a personal level because, to some degree, I projected upon it.
