    Mavs management fault, they should've made sure everyone involved (esp. players with power to stop the trade) was on the same page before pulling the trigger.
    They did, and then George and his agent got cold feet. They're not idiots, you may not like them, but they knew about George's early Bird rights.

    I didn't read any of that.
    So then why the are you commenting on something you know nothing about?

    All I know is Cubano was throwing stones and that bounced right back and hit him in the face. Wasn't he yappin off bout the Lakers recently? It's not George, it's Dallas management not crossing their t's and dotting their i's. It's this dip 's fault...

    How is it Devon George's fault? He's just a player. They should have had plan B. Stackhouse was also shooting his mouth off and now is excluded from any trade. Devon is the last person to blame. I have enough common sense not to read that .

    I'll take "He and his agent blocked the trade" for $200, Alex.

    Is he?

    League spokesman Tim Frank said the league may look into the situation, but added there is no truth to reports that the NBA has decided to block Stackhouse’s return to the Mavericks in such a trade.

    No, they didn't block any trade. Management makes trades. They used the wrong players. Mainly George and they should have had a backup plan. George can't block any trade. They can either agree or disagree.

    According to one league source, the NBA has already made one of the teams aware of its position.

    "The league has taken Stackhouse out of the deal," the source said. "They said, 'He can be in the trade, but he can't go back to Dallas after that.' "
    "If Stackhouse had kept quiet, the league would not have been able to prove anything," a Western Conference executive said.

    The executive added that team owners have been calling commissioner David Stern to complain about the Stackhouse part of the deal, and that several GMs would have been incensed if he had allowed the trade -- and subsequent return of Stackhouse to Dallas -- to go through.
    Whatever Homer.....Or is it Alex?

    If you'd bothered to read the article, you'd know that they ran the trade by Devean and he said nothing, then as the papers were submitted to the league, he changed his mind. And let's go with the word of a pissy rival gm over somebody from the league's office. Thanks for playing MagicMan, keep posting if you want to keep embarrassing yourself.

    Well if he said nothing why did they include him then? Again, players don't make decisions for the franchise, the franchise does. Pissy rival GM's? Most think Dallas is giving up way too much. Of course until they found out about all the under the table deals that were going on. Thanks for playing Alex but nobody is that naive to believe Devon is to blame here. It's your face Dancing With The Stars file a law suit because the Mavs choked owner the one to blame.

    Are you a troll or that ing stupid? RTFA. Are you illiterate?

    I agree but that's another discussion.

    Lakers rule! Kobe #1! Woohoo!

    If you want to be taken seriously or garner any respect at all, you'd better know what you're talking about. You clearly don't.

    If George ok'd the trade then Stack would have been a Net before the L said he couldn't go back to the Mavs , but by that time the trade would have gone through

    Wow, it's amazing to see how many people responded, and how evenly the blame appears to be distributed.

    This just proves that Cuban still has a lot to learn from Jerry West when it comes to collusion.
