Poetic justice that he blocks the trade and puts up a big Goose Egg a few hours later..

Wouldn’t it be damn hilarious if the Lakers swooped right in and traded for Jason Kidd from under the Mavs?

Larry Bird rights aren’t what let him block the trade. He used the no trade clause (wtf!) to protect his Larry Bird rights, which would let Dallas sign him to big bucks without paying luxury tax. I guess it makes it easier for them to do a sign and trade with him. The luxury tax is so confusing, but either way, I can’t imagine Cuban is going to want to do any favors for George in the off season after he blew up this trade…

How did Devean George get a no-trade clause?
How do NJ and Dallas re-group after this? Their cards are on the table so it’s pretty hard to pull the team back together after this.

Of course George would block this trade. Going to a team that has the wing pretty much locked? A guy like him wants to go to a team where he’s actually get some tick. I’d do it too if I wear him. Mavs may not be screwed after all.

This deal may not go down after all. Devean freaking George of all people has blocked the trade. Didn’t this jackass say he wanted to traded just last week? Who does he think he is? Anyway, I hope it does go down for Dallas. As much as I loved Devin Harris and his speed, Dallas definitely needed a change. Also, Dirk and Josh work waaaaay too hard for their own shots. J-Kidd is the answer!

Man oh man this is ridiculous. Maybe everyone out west is realizing the top nine…NINE teams in the west have better winning pct. then all but the top two in the east. This is nuts

This made no sense when it first was rumored, made no sense when Portland was mentioned in a 3 way, and makes even less sense now! This is just bad. The Mavs are giving up WAY to much to get back one guy, who mind you, QUIT ON HIS TEAM AT ONE POINT THIS SEASON! Kidd is an amazing point guard, undoubtable one of the best I’ve had the pleasure of seeing in my lifetime, but seriously. This deal is just plain dumb. Mavs out in the first round. Again.

They are really gonna miss Diop, and they’re giving away 2 draft picks ? Its a lil too pricey for me to believe…
