That would be a good tradde for the mavs.
Just saw it on NBAtv, deal would send Josh Howard and Drew Gooden to Washington.
I guess we can scratch Haywood off our trade speculation list.

Holy crap. Did Rolando Blackman replace Ernie Grunfeld as GM of the Wiz?
Here's Adrian Wojnarowski's info:
The Washington Wizards and Dallas Mavericks are nearing completion on a trade that will exchange Caron Butler and Josh Howard, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.
The teams were negotiating whether to expand the trade to include Wizards center Brendan Haywood, but one source with knowledge of the talks said he doesn’t expect the core of the deal – Butler and Howard – to unravel. Wizards guard DeShawn Stevenson is expected to be moved to Dallas in either deal involving Butler.
The Mavericks would send Quinton Ross or Tim Thomas and possibly Drew Gooden to Washington if the trade also includes Haywood.

So, the Butler/Howard part sounds all but done. Spurs fans should cheer for the Gooden/Haywood part being kept out somehow.
But damn, a Butler/Haywood addition to the Mavs would give them supreme flexibility whoever they face.
I didn't think we had much of a chance at the division before but we are definitely not winning it now.
This team has to be more concerned with Houston and Memphis than Dallas right now if it doesn't start playing more like it did last night. The Spurs have the talent to curbstomp the new and improved Mavs anyways. If somehow we could take the team to Oz and get Jefferson a heart and Pop a brain, the only foe that would matter would be LA.
If it's just Butler for Howard, then that makes sense for both teams, although still an upgrade for Dallas.
If it includes Gooden for Haywood, that a gain for the Mavs and makes absolutely no sense for the Wiz.
so they're trading spur killer? hmm
The Mavs own us this year until we prove otherwise. With them getting two high-quality players, we're going to have an even tougher time matching up with them.
Butler would be a great addition, but as long as Haywood is out of the deal, they can still be toppled.
it wont matter if spurs arent in the playoffs anyways...![]()
Great trade for the Mavs. I don't know why the spurs have never had any interest in trading for Butler. Never heard they tried to trade for him and he has been traded a few times now. And Haywood is an upgrade to Gooden.
that man....
Is this season over?![]()
How should the spurs react ?
Iguodala/Dalembert ?
It would be funnier if it wasnt so true. lol

And now the Cavs are in negotiations for Amar''''''''e.
Goddamnit, why couldn't Arenas have pulled that gat a few months earlier?
Igoudala gets paid $16 million in 2014.
I'm not sure if the Spurs would go for such a long contract.
For what, Z and Varejeo? That could be very risky.
Well looks like the Spurs have to react. Then again, the team might just stand pat and see what happens
The Spurs brass is in deep discussion as we speak on how to react. Currently, they are devising plans for Roger Mason Jr and George Hill to guard Haywood.
You know better than that. Finley's healthy again.
So what? Only the Coyote has a longer deal.
