Kidd has proven this ability to lead teams to victory on every level at which he's played, from high school to college to the pros. The first hints of Jason Kidd's greatness came in high school, where he led his school basketball team to the California State Championship in 1991. Then, upon entering the University of California at Berkeley, his impact was immediate as he led the team to the NCAA tournament. After his junior year, Kidd entered the 1994 NBA Draft. After successful stints in Dallas and Phoenix, Kidd was traded to New Jersey in 2001, where he once again quickly turned a losing team into a winner. As long as Jason Kidd is leading the way, the New Jersey Nets can rest assured that they will be championship contenders for many seasons to come Includes bibliographical references (pages 94-99) and index A most amazing
