    I've heard it's 50% for 05-06 and 25% for 06-07

    If this happens Holt & Co. are going for complete domination of the "totally re ed"
    NBA.

    It makes sense to me, if TAW is waived, to sign him, give him the 14th spot on the roster for the minimum, and see what he's got. At worst, you cashier him in midseason ala Ron Mercer; at best, you've found another wing who can defend and who might actually be able to offer a serviceable offensive game -- plus a guy who comes in with something to prove (ala Glenn Robinson).

    If TAW remembers to bring Olivier Saint-Jean with him, things might be quite nice.

    Unless other players are involved (meaning Dallas sends out more players than they take back), I don't see a trade happening. I'm assuming they want to keep these guys:

    Darrell Armstrong
    Doug Christie
    Erick Dampier
    Marquis Daniels
    DeSagana Diop
    Devin Harris
    Josh Howard
    Didier Ilunga-Mbenga
    Rawle Marshall
    Dirk Nowitzki
    Pavel Podkolzin
    Josh Powell
    Jerry Stackhouse
    Jason Terry
    Keith Van Horn

    Who would they waive for another center?

    They won't be trading rasho for TAW, that initial deal fell through.

    They just wanna give him a try after he's waived

    Not stupid...

    The story in France is that supposedly, he's always wanted to play and wasn't really injured; and that it's the Mavs that didn't want to play him.

    According to the Express-News, "Popovich didn't accompany the team to Bossier City after it practiced Wednesday in Indianapolis. Instead, he flew to Dallas to help honor one of his basketball mentors, Don Nelson. Nelson coached the Milwaukee Bucks, Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks and Dallas Mavericks"

    Right.

    I believe that; just explaining why a trade probably wouldn't happen.

    TAW said in his website that Dallas said he was injured (insurance will pay his salary) but he has passed physicals to proove that he is healthy.

    Since TAW has been "injured" and on the shelf for several years...dude would have serious non-game. You know that easychairitis is a difficult injury to recover from.

    You're right. You can visit dallas-mavs.com (do a search) to read the articles about his bitter situation with Dallas. If memory serves correctly it was last summer that Cuban asked the NBA for help in resolving the issue. Team doctors said he couldn't play and TAW refused a buyout. The Mavs were looking for a medical exception. The NBA provided doctors and they said he could play.

    I'm not sure how much he has left in the tank but I always believed he could still play and it was Cuban who was forcing him out. They told him last summer not to even bother reporting to camp. He wouldn't be suiting up for the Mavs ever again.
