Jason Kidd claims that he doesn't need any rest before debuting with the Dallas Mavericks, according to the Associated Press.

He is expected to make his debut against the New Orleans Hornets on Wednesday night.

"It's exciting. It's new. It's different ,and you don't have time to rest in the West because if you lose a game you can drop a couple spots," Kidd told the AP after a shootaround on Wednesday morning at the New Orleans Arena.
