Stack and Harris for Kidd? No dice. Go back to the drawing board.

Knowing that, a deal that makes sense for two teams is Kidd to the Mavericks. To make the salaries match, the Mavs could offer Devin Harris, Jerry Stackhouse, DeSagana Diop, Juwan Howard and Devean George. The latter three all have expiring contracts, which would clear about about $5 million off the Nets' books this summer, free them of paying Kidd $21-plus million next season and give them a pair of solid guards in Harris and Stackhouse. (Mark Cuban, however, doesn't see it this way. When I asked him via e-mail if the above proposal had any substance, he replied: "Step away from your crack dealer." I'm taking that as a no, he doesn't see that deal happening.)

If you end up like the heat, at least you will have won a championship or you could just keep running through the regular season and have painful exits in the playoffs
.....
9-34. We may have some painful exits but, we ain't 9-34.

This guy is going to the Lakers. But I don't think he will go by the trade deadline.

I could care less what you have to say because it doesn't matter. You didn't win the chip last year and neither did we. We had a 3 peat and yall wonone chip this decade so we both did somethings. We all just trying to get back to the promise land.

No, what I meant by trying to be the Heat was, trading away all of our key players for the prospect of something that could improve us, and end uphorrendously. I'm very content being a contender in the West year in and year out, and if we keep the core of Devin, Josh, and Dirk together, it'sgoing to be hard for any team to beat the Mavericks. Dirk is a threat no matter what you will say, yes he's had some flaws in his game, but lets not forgetthis is a man who basically single-handedly KILLED the Spurs two years ago. Maybe I see the things differently because I'm a Mavericks fan and I'drather ignore the negatives (the 06 Finals), and concentrate on the past achievements and getting better. Josh Howard is one of the most dynamic and versatileplayers in the L who is very hard to defend, yet is a good defender, and has years of great basketball ahead of him. Devin is capable of going on spurts of10-12 points in 3-4 minutes and his speed/agility will only make him better as his polishes his outside game. We can't do it alone though, we need our roleplayers, we're nothing without our role players, what made the Heat so good two years ago was their role players, yes Wade was good, that's alleveryone ever talks about, but hardly do they talk about Haslem, Posey, Jones, the role players who did just as much damage as Wade. The Mavericks couldpossibly have two of the top four bench players in the L with Jason Terry and Jerry Stackhouse, both who are capable of putting up 30-35 a night if they takethe shots. Our Centers are the key to success on our team, if they're off, the entire team is off, if they do well, we don't lose. Diop and moreimportantly Dampier were CRITICAL to us winning 67 wins last year, Dampier wasn't healthy in the Playoffs last year and we get knocked out in the firstround. Now, that's definitely not the only reason we lost, and my theory is that if you have a great team, even if you have a key player out, you should beable to win as long as you have other key players to fill the void. Bringing in Kidd would make our offense better yes, but Devin is a good scorer, Kidd on theother hand, and I've said this before there were talks of him being possibly traded, is one of the worst offensive PG's in the League as far asshooting goes, and it would halt the development of Devin, and if we got rid of him? What do we do when Jason Kidd retires?! I'd rather look towards beinga strong force in the future and contending year in and year out, to be honest, we were a few foul calls away from being the Champions two years ago with avery similar team. Marques Daniels, Keith Van Horn, Adrian Griffin, Darrell Armstrong, and Josh Powell are the only players that were on that team two yearsago that aren't on there now. Instead of those 5-6 we have Brandon Bass, Trenton Hassell, Devean George, Eddie Jones, who in my opinion are much betterthan those who we have lost, and most are very good defenders. I'm fine with our team right now, we can lose to bad teams yes, but I have faith we can turnit on if we need to. Just because I'm making a long post, it's ridiculous how any player can get 73 FT's in a period of four games (Dwyane Wade
).
EDIT: And, the Heat took 49 FT attempts to Dallas' 25 in pivotal game 5.

Don't really see Kidd going anywhere before the deadline....
Good fit would seem to be the Mavs and maybe the Lakers but I hope he stays in the East.

I think he should stay in the East, I know it's not common consensus to trade a player to a team in the same conference, but there's too many damn goodguards in the West, imagine if Kidd, Paul, Nash, AI (SG?), Roy, (SF?), TP, Baron, Deron all in the same conference.

JR Smith and Linas Kleiza don't make much sense, and Nene is a question mark right now. Without him, this deal is pointless, because Kleiza plays SF right?and JR Smith plays SG? Hmm, who plays SG and SF for the Nets?

Cuban won't do it if it involves Devin, or both Stack+JET I believe he has said. The deal the Mavericks+Nets are trying to do HAS to involve a third team,

Well if you're not a mavs fan then you should not have responded because I was referring to the dallas guy that said the original comment
But you were just itching to respond, so now i will respond to you. Have fun with your "Return to theromise Land" AKA another quick playoff exit,while i enjoy my lottery balls in peace

Why would anyone take Nene right now? He wasn't even playing well this season before they found out he had a tumor... Now, he's coming off having atumor/cancer removed, and he's carrying a contract that'll pay him upwards of 10-11 million through 2012. There's NO WAY I would take on thatcontract right now.

They weren't even Cavs fans doing it, just random ppl because the article mentions Cleveland as a destination. Quit reaching for ways to bash on the Cavs and their fans, it's not working.
