Dallas, Denver and New Jersey have discussed three-way that would land Harris with Mavs and Felton and Mozgov with Nets, source says.

BREAKING NEWS From the desk of JayTheClown
This trade isn't happening.
Move along people there is nothing to see here.
its said that a 4th team would likely be involved, and basically all Dallas has to give up is Butler, a pick, and cash, while getting Harris back. I'd say go for that, no question about it, unless something better somehow presents itself, such as Tayshaun Prince or Gerald Wallace.
Butler for Harris doesn't make the Mavs any better imo before Butler went down. If Roddy can step up, it might be good enough, but the problem is Butler wouldn't cut into Roddy's minutes positionally, Harris does.
tbh it would be interesting to see what Harris can do with the Mavs now that he has developed a bit more, and having a guy like Kidd to set him up, as well as Chandler in the middle. he was a MUCH more efficient scorer when playing with Dirk, and he likely will be much more efficient than he has been in NJ, and now that he wouldn't be relied on to run the offense much, he can just focus on scoring.
Not saying it does, but Harris for Butler (who isnt playing, and likely wont really be able to play at the level he was before he got hurt) is a nice deal and definitely helps them.
Again, I'd rather have Prince or Wallace first, but if the Mavs can't swing a trade for those guys, this is a no-brainer. Hopefully it can be a situation where the team who gets Butler will waive him and he can boomerang back to Dallas. If they somehow win a le this year, I want him to be a part of it, even if he isn't able to play. I like the guy.
Truth is, its definitely a tough situation for the Mavs FO. It would suck to give up Roddys minutes to Harris, especially if Roddy ends up turning out to be the better player. His skillset is already better and more fitting for the Mavs than Harris' skillset, considering the simple fact that hes a deadly shooter. But at the same time, no one knows if Roddy can play to potential this year.
Jackson is more than obtainable and would be better overall. I would f'ing hate to see Jax on the Mavs. He, at least in theory, is exactly what the Mavs need both positionally and skill set.
Butler says he will be back for the playoffs and even if he isn't able to return he can still be effective for the next couple years. Harris is pretty overrated IMO and having a backcourt of Kidd,JJB,Beaboius, and Harris would leave no time for one of those guys and you know who that guy will be when it comes to Carlisle....
I would hate to see Jax in Dallas also because I have always rooted for the guy but I am not scared of him as a player and if it means Dallas has to get rid of Butler, a player like Roddy and maybe a pick or something then it would be fine with me. Jackson is not what he used to be.
Jax can likely be had for an expiring contract. Butler for Jax is an upgrade, even when Butler was healthy.
Ehh Dallas getting sjax wouldn't scare me. Doubt Charlotte is willing to get rid of him straight up for Butler though.
Really? Saves them like 21M in just straight salary.
I'd be all for this trade if it meant Harris was taking away all of Barea's minutes and a chunk of Terry's. But we all know ing Carlisle will just give all of roddy/stevensons minutes to Harris so in the end this trade is pointless and re ed. I'd honestly rather see them try to get JHo back than do this.
Also, LMAO at Avery being so bent on trading his beloved son. I haven't seen him so determined to trade away a PG since, well, the last time he traded Harris. I wonder if the Russian will be okay with it when Avery throws him under the bus and lies to the media about how he never wanted to trade his son Devin for the second time, or if he'll just get one of his soldiers to give Avery a Colombian Necktie for his insolence.
Sure, Mavs trade Butler+Roddy for Jax because one postseason with Jax is so much better than a postseason with Roddy and the next years with Butler AND Roddy rofl
Prince will be shopped before the deadline. It's possible he's available.
Sure as God made little green apples, the Lakers will find a way to turn Devin Harris into a jump shooter in a playoff series.
To me it's a pointless trade really. No way you can find a useful rotation for Kidd, Harris, Barea, Terry and Roddy, which are all esentially PGs. Unless we do Barea for Harris, than I would be all for it.
Likewise! Him or Ramon Felton. Harris don't scare me with the Macs anymo. Felton Dirk, & Chandler does though.
Tayshaun Prince to the Mavs is more likely right now, especially with Ujiri not wanting to flip any of the Knicks back to the Nets. Mavs had a plan in place for Harris, but the retention of those traded have put a damper on things.
Harris is going to the Blazers. End of story.
Good, I'd rather have Prince anyways.
Unless the plan was "give him all of Barea's minutes and 25% of Terry's" then their plan was stupid. Thankfully that trade won't happen.
