NBA News And Rumors: Knicks' Guard Jason Kidd Considering Retiring At The End Of Season

The second eldest member of the New York Knicks and one of the game's best floor generals, Jason Kidd is considering retirement at the conclusion of this season.

Despite having already have signed a three-year contract with the Knicks last summer, according to the N.Y. Daily News, he isn't ruling out retirement at the season's end.

Whenever he decides retire, he's sure to be bound for the NBA Hall of Fame. Kidd is a 10-time All-Star and has won one NBA championship in 2011 with the Dallas Mavericks. Throughout his Hall of Fame career he's recorded 12,051 assists, 17,471 points, 8,655 rebounds and 107 triple-doubles.

"I've achieved everything," Kidd added. "It's about the competition now and trying to achieve the ultimate goal and that's to be the last team standing. When you fulfill that goal to win you want another one because you know it's the ultimate feeling of winning a championship. You want that second one just as much as you want the first one."

Kidd, 40, is currently averaging 6.6 points and 3.4 assists in 61 games with the Knicks, including 48 starts.

Bob Cousy and John Stockton are the only two point guards to play into their 40s. Cousy, who's run is looked at more as of a gimmick, came out of retirement in 1970 to play just seven games for Cincinnati, mostly to help with ticket sales. Stockton, however, is viewed a little more uniquely. He turned 40 on March 26, 2002 and in his final season with the Utah Jazz, he was the starting point guard in all 82 games averaging 10.8 points and 7.7 assists per game.
