Eddy Syet Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 monster game by VC woohoo Congrats to the Nets for beating the powerhouse Mavs - it's going yo be a BIG confidence-booster for the team, especially for VC... Hoping that there would be more games like this for VC in a consistent basis.. Buti pa si JKidd despite the old age and trade rumors surrounding him still plays with all his heart, racking up stats every night (on his way to his 100th triple-double), doing everything he can just to help the team - thats the mark of a true professional - and that's what VC should try to emulate... Thanks, bro! That's exactly what's on my mind! :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment

elmersglue Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Sources: Mavs, Nets close in on Kidd deal By Marc Stein Updated: February 13, 2008, 3:28 PM ET Jason Kidd has quietly -- and not so quietly -- hoped for a trade to the Dallas Mavericks all season. No Kidding Around Jason Kidd, despite being a month away from turning 35, is still producing at a high level. Only two others, Magic Johnson and Oscar Robertson, have met his averages (below) over the course of a season, and they did so in their early- and mid-20s. Those hopes are about to realized, according to NBA front-office sources. Sources told ESPN.com that the Mavericks and Nets on Wednesday reached an agreement in principle on a Kidd deal after talks had seemingly stalled last week, moving the teams to brink of completing the NBA's third blockbuster deal of the month. Although sources say that the teams are still sorting out final details, this deal was described as "imminent" by multiple sources close to the process after negotiations moved to an advanced stage Tuesday night. The deal -- salvaged from talks on a three-way trade with Portland that developed and fizzled quickly two weeks ago -- has Dallas sending 24-year-old point guard Devin Harris, veteran swingman Jerry Stackhouse, the expiring contracts of center DeSagana Diop and swingman Devean George and guard Maurice Ager to New Jersey for Kidd and forward Malik Allen. Sources say Dallas will also add the league-maximum $3 million in cash and send its first-round draft pick this June as well as a first-rounder in 2010. The Nets are expected to buy out Stackhouse's contract immediately, which could enable him to re-sign with Dallas if he waits 30 days, and ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard reports that the Nets and the Mavs are likewise poised to complete a separate trade that will send swingman Antoine Wright to Dallas for a future second-round pick. Dallas has been widely considered the most likely winner of the Kidd trade sweepstakes, despite the repeated attempts of Mavericks owner Mark Cuban to publicly dismiss the idea of parting with multiple regulars for Kidd. Cuban told several New York-based reporters Sunday before New Jersey beat Dallas that a deal for All-Star floor leader would severely weaken his roster. "For us to make the numbers work in a deal like that, we'd have to trade away half the team," Cuban said. "We're not doing that, so it just doesn't work. And we like our team. We've got a lot of room for improvement and we hope to get better. But right now, I just don't see anything happening. Yet sources close to the process insist that the talks have heated up in the past 24 hours, with the Mavs still tantalized by the prospect of bringing Kidd back more than a decade after the pre-Cuban regime drafted him out of Cal, watched him share rookie of the year honors with Grant Hill in 1994-95 and then traded him to Phoenix on the day after Christmas in 1996.

howard_the_duck Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 VC must begin whoring his points now! Quote Link to comment
peep_tom Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I hear Kidd is on his way to Dallas, if i'm not mistaken in exchange of 5 players that include Terry, Diop, Stack and 2 more. Dallas will recieve something else aside from Kidd. Lets see if this pushes thru. Quote Link to comment
munchkins and donuts Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 The nets must get rid of carter. After signing a huge contract look at what hes doing. (sucks) exactly! buti pa si Kobe (though naangasan ako sa kanya) making himself worthy of his price... Quote Link to comment

Dallas will recieve something else aside from Kidd. Lets see if this pushes thru. The deal's encountered some problems because Devean George don't wanna lose his Larry Bird Rights. I'm sure the Nets and the Mavs can do some tweaking to make this trade work. I'm still optimistic. Quote Link to comment
rafer_alston Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 if Kidd departs NJ, do we expect Carter to follow?? let's say Houston or Utah??? "NBA where every freakin trade possible happens!!" Quote Link to comment
