Good news!
Good news!
Stackhouse and George not going makes this a much better trade for the Mavericks.
Still makes em weaker vs the Spurs though.
Hallelujah!
Time to phone up Thorn
Elson, Spurs 2008 1st, Cash
for
Diop, Mavs 2010 1st
Diop would not be a bad pickup, especially if Elson is who is going out.
This deal's even better IMO. This takes Dallas out of the Mike Miller sweepstakes, since they had to move Van Horn's deal. Stackhouse was going back in 30 days anyways, and Devean George and Trenton Hassell are pretty equal scrubs.
how long is diop's contract
ian and spitter are coming in next year with rookie contracts
well it was a point of no return for both teams. Since inevitable.
Are the Mavs still getting Antoine Wright?
Yes, good news. Time will tell if this is good for Dallas. There's little consensus on whether it makes the Mavs better or not, but Spurs fans clearly think some of the matchup problems Diop and Harris bring are now eliminated.
That's what I'd like to know, as well as Darrell Armstrong. And yeah, I was against the idea of acquiring Kidd because Harris and Diop are so vital against San Antonio, but the team's chemistry would've been shot if it had been called off.
I would love the Spurs to get Diop. For some reason he's been in Averys doghouse the whole year, but if we could get him thatd be great.
Agreed. Would Thorn though trade a big like Diop to the Spurs?
Doubtfull...
He has an expiring contract, so probably not, that's why the Nets wanted him included.
The Nets don't really have use for Diop do they? It could be possible....
if this trade happens the west becomes even tougher. damn. it's going to be the best playoffs ever.
just like every other spurs fan i'd love to see the spurs to well in the playoffs and hopefully win the championship, but damn i sure as would not mind a dirk and kidd vs. nash and stoudamire and shaq battle.
Only if you have an expiring contract to send back.
They got tougher against other teams other than the Spurs.
Good for the Spurs as well
Mavs will have George instead of Hassel, it's basically as good as the nixed trade for SA.
Diop could be interesting to get if he is available for cheap. However, it won't be easy to match salaries, Diop for Elson doesn't work and Diop can't be packaged with another player.
Elson is an expiring contract.
Elson and Diop both have expiring contracts so maybe...
So does Elson...
Again, the Nets are looking to create cap space and Diop comes off the books this summer. If the Spurs want to swing something before thursday, it has to be a one-for-one swap and you'd have to send an expiring contract to Jersey. Diop makes $2.1 million, who on your roster makes within 15% of that and is coming off the books this summer?
Elson for Diop doesn't work.
You're absolutely wrong if you think Hassell is anywhere near George, but ok.
