whats up?
they did i thought we were getting another weak as trade pop would've been real upset with that one
They had to, otherwise the salaries don't match up.
In the paragraph above the quote from the report, yes it fails to mention Harris in the trade. However, if you keep reading further down you will get to the section I just quoted. In short, Harris was included in the deal.For New Jersey, president Rod Thorn brought back the three elements he most wanted for Kidd: a good young player (Harris), expiring contracts (Diop and George) and draft picks. What’s more, the Nets plan to buyout the rest of Stackhouse’s contract. Stackhouse can become an immediate free agent, but must wait 30 days to re-sign with Dallas.
Despite Kidd’s doubts that the Nets and Mavericks would ever come to an agreement, two league sources close to the negotiations said an agreement in principle has been reached on Wednesday. After wavering for weeks, Dallas owner Mark Cuban has sacrificed some of his franchise’s future to chase a championship in the short term. The agreement would send five players, including point guard Devin Harris, and first round picks in 2008 and 2010, for the future Hall of Fame guard.
The two teams are still exchanging insurance information and going through the normal procedures with the league office to finalize the deal.
Kidd, who turns 35 next month, goes to Dallas with an unmistakable mandate: Bring a le for a team and career that are desperately seeking it. As part of the trade, the Mavericks would also send Jerry Stackhouse, Devean George, DeSagna Diop, Maurice Ager and $3 million to New Jersey. Along with Kidd, the Nets send reserve forward Malik Allen to the Mavs.
So resigning is 30 days. Barry could be moved in a trade, cut and brought back just about the time he may be ready to play again.
No wonder your source is anonymous
Stein has just said on SportsCenter that the deal is 99% closed and that Harris is on it
