are the Mavs Kidding or What?

it's been an extremely busy february for GM's and agents in the NBA. the Lakers pick up Pau Gasol at the Memphis clearance sale, Shaq/Marion trade brings the Diesel to Phoenix, Webber returns to Golden State, and the Nets agree to send triple-double machine Jason Kidd to the Mavericks... almost. apparently, Jason Kidd will have to wait at least One More Day (let's hope Satan is not involved in THIS deal...), as the deal just ain't sittin' well with Devean George, who does not want to participate in the trade because he would have to give up some of his free-agent rights.
"We're not trying to block anything,'' agent Mark Bartelstein told the Dallas Morning News. "But just like teams have to make tough decisions, my job is to protect Devean and sometimes we have to make tough decisions. Right now, he feels good about his situation in Dallas... The whole thing is uncomfortable. But this is a right Devean has.''
Kidd, who (like me) turns 35 next month, would go to Dallas with one bullet point on his "to do" list: Win the NBA Championship. As part of the trade, the Mavericks would also send Jerry Stackhouse, Devean George, DeSagna Diop, Maurice Ager and $3 million to New Jersey. Along with Kidd, the Nets send reserve forward Malik Allen to the Mavs. One league source expects Stackhouse to return to the Mavericks if the trade is completed. if that's true, give George some hush money or something and get this deal in the books!
as i often say... we'll see!
holla!
