DMN reports:

Stack: I'll be back
4:39 PM Wed, Feb 13, 2008
Tim MacMahon

Jerry Stackhouse confirmed to The Associated Press that the Jason Kidd-to-Dallas blockbuster is basically a done deal.

Stack will be shipped to the Nets in the trade, but he's all for it. That's because all indications are that the Nets will buy out his contract, and he plans to re-sign with the Mavs as soon as league rules allow.

"I feel great," said Stack, who is nursing a sore right hamstring. "I get 30 days to rest, then I'll be right back. I ain't going nowhere."

I am not sure we want him back

this once was a young team with a future. Now it is very old, incomplete, and teh window is almost closed. How does this make a championship run?

Stack off the bench at the vet min for one year?
how does it hurt an old team on a championship run?
it keeps a veteran who quite frankly was the toughness of this team over the past couple seasons...

Bringing Stack back would help, even if only because we dump his salary and get him back for pennies on the dollar (hopefully).

PG: Kidd - JET
SG: Jones - Hassell
SF: Josh - Stack
PF: Dirk - Bass
C: Damp - Allen

That's not a bad group. A little thin in spots, but it's a better mix, IMO, than what we had. A follow-up deal or two would help, though.

This makes the trade easier for me to accept.

Definitely want Stack back and he wants to be here. As long as NJ plays ball, it's a no-brainer.

It isnt true... New Jersey has until March 1st to buy him out, and once he sits out his 30 days he should be playoff eligible

how could you think that Jason Kidd could be a clutch shooter. Is this the same guy they called Ason Kidd because he has no J. THis year he is having the worst shooting year ever. Shooting 37.6 from the field. I think DH is shooting better than that this year. I think this was a bonehead trade. I would have rather traded Devin Harris, and Stack for Pau Gasol then this trade, and looking what Memphis accepted for Pau we could've easily gotten it. This is a horrible trade. If Devin wasn't included it would be great. I don't think Stack is coming back to Dallas. Why would he? He can sign with Phoenix. We don't have a backup center anymore just a injury prone Dampier. We traded way too much to get Kidd. Why was the two round draft picks and the money about? I mean come on. Anyways, Jason Kidd is 35 years old, and is a horrible shooter, Yeah he can rebound and assist. But he may only have 3 years left in him. In 3 yeras, Devin Harris could be an allstar for the next 10 years. Devin Harris can defend and is quick, Jason Kidd can't defend anyone, especially the all star guards in the west. From this trade, we got older, slower and more contract. If Devin wasn't involved it would be okay, but the fact that we had to trade DH, Stack and Diop doesn't sit well with me at all. I think this is the worst trade in mavericks history. I wish we could've added KVH's contract and kept either Stack, diop or someone. Not too mention Kidd isn't exactly a stand up guy. He was traded the first time because he thought he was all that and had a big entourage. He has domestic violence issues, just not a good trade overall. How bad does Cuban's decision not to give Steve Nash at age 32 15mill a yr, when he trades away the bench to get a 35 yr old Kidd at 20mil a year, especially when Nash won mvp the next 2 years. Also, the mavs have officially traded away almost all of there trade pieces. They clearly won't ever give up howard and they almost have to keep terry now. First of all, Kidd is shooting 37.6% from the FIELD, this year Harris is shooting 47.8%, Harris who is not the best shooter is shooting much better than Kidd. Harris is faster, better defender and young. Kidd is old, slow, yeah he can rebound and assist but that's it.
YES DEVEAN GEORGE HAS BLOCKD THE TRADE!
Why do you think this is a good trade for the MAVS? Devin Harris has a higher effiency rating, takes more charges, goes to the line more, is faster, better defender, 10 years younger, makes 4x less than KIDD, is on the upswing, KIDD IS ON THE DOWNSWING, HARRIS HAS A MUCH HIGHER SHOOTING PERCENTAGE> WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? HONESTLY.
I would have to think about trading Harris for Kidd straight up. Honestly, much less the original proposed trade.

Doesn't matter the deal will still fall though.
