Gave away Kidd? Keyword to google search "Devin Harris". Nets wanted to rebuild, Mavs wanted to win now.

I'd rather see what Sean Singletary can do.

LOL, $1000000 says the Mavs would never do that Kidd/Harris trade again.

That had to be an **** moment if their ever was one. Kidd has a different style, but Harris is someone you can rebuild a team around.

Just for reference, there is no one that is still available that is worth bringing in. Free agents next season, absolutley. Minor projects of the D-League, maybe. But anyone that is going to help long term or short term, no.

Bonzi Wells- Major issues, little help.

Marcus Williams- was good for a little bit, but sucks overall. I mean hes got the same alma matte as Emeka and he can hold two basketballs at once (according to his playerfile photo). Beyond that, I don't think he can do anything else. Nice tattoos though. As far as him taking over for Kidd after his rookie year, i'm pretty sure that was only speculation. His numbers were mediocre at best. His assist to turnover ratio was less then 2:1, his shooting percentages were pretty poor (outside of free throws. although he only took 85 in 1,315 minutes).

Shaun Livingston- Still needs to get up to speed, not worth a roster spot.

Dermarr Johnson- meh.

Ruben Patterson, Steve Francis, Robert Horry- All talk and little game, practically two month old expired milk, just retire already.

Adonal Foyle, Scot Pollard, Michael Doleac- Only if the goal is to boost the opinion of Nazr.

Antonie Walker- Only if the goal is to get the team focused against one enemy who is chucking up 28 ft 3 pointers.

Etc, etc, etc.

Don't be a smart ass espially since you don't know what the hell your talking about. I said they almost gave him away in Williams rookie year. I was talking about when they almost traded Kidd to the Lakers the year before for expiring and picks and were gonna hand over the reighns to Williams. They backed out at the last minute and demanded Bynum.
The Devin Harris trade came a year later. Did you really somebody who bothers to even get an account here doesn't know who Devin Harris is?
