One thing that comes to mind is our own dealings to try and get Kidd when Parker was still trying to establish himself. Remember what happened there, Parker took it as a kick in the ass and proved everyone wrong. I'd assume Harris may do the same thing, he has alot of similarities to Parker and i'm sure he's taken this whole thing as a slap in the face.

yep, I was thinking the same thing, he could use it as motivation like Parker or it could go south and break him emotionally.

Does Cuban know that he needs to run the trade thru our trade checker...

Anyways it was sheer stupidity what Stackhouse said... "Yeah... let me get 30 days off and then I will be back with the Mavs." Yeah... there is an understanding but you don't open your mouth and tell the AP about it. The Mavs are lucky that the NBA didn't take away picks due to him.

The Mavs are very lucky alright. As for JKidd. I wouldn't be too surprised if he ended up elsewhere.

Well at least in my own mind they are better with Harris, but now they have alot of internal turmoil within their team. They aren't exactly the most mentally strong team there is... so i am very interested in how they do.

Yup, it's back on. KVH turns out to be useful for something afterall. This might be his greatest accomplishment in the NBA.

Haven't the nets tried the whole Van Horn thing before lol.
Well this seems to be a very strange move. I don't see how this makes them a better team.
Sure Kidd is one of the best PG's of the generation. But i don't see how he can guard some of the elite players in the west.
Nash, Parker, Paul, Williams. While being a little unpredictable, Harris gave them energy, a fiesty defender and really trouble Parker.
Kidd won't be able to come near parker.
They have emptied their bench and the given away their best option in guarding, TD, Gasol and STAT.
Sure they now have Kidd back and an upgrade at the point but this gamble would want to pay off this year, otherwise this deal is a dud.

It's a dud deal. Mavs fans will try to see the light but really they won't make any noise in the playoffs without a big man defender in the West.

Quick question... as of today the Mavs were 35/18 with a .660 before the Harris/Kidd trade.... lets forget that they were 5/5 without him. Do they win at a better rate with Kidd in the lineup for the rest of the year.

Over or under their current .660 winning percentage.

Regular season: I can see them improving on the .660 win %

Playoffs: 1st or 2nd round elimination due to Kidd's deficiencies on D and lack of big man presence.
