Another Blockbuster Trade: Kidd Back to Dallas


Wow, in an attempt to strike championship gold there has been a frenzy of trades by teams to position themselves better. After each trade, it seems like it causes another one to happen, much like the "if a butterfly flaps its wings, it causes a tsunami somewhere else in the world." If that is true then there is still a storm a brewing somewhere in the NBA before the trade deadline, do you think we'll see any more 'blockbuster' trades?

If a tsunami is coming or not, this is enough of a storm after news of the Gasol trade, then the Shaq trade and now here are the details on the latest:
Jason Kidd and Malik Allen go to Dallas for 24-year-old point guard Devin Harris, Jerry Stackhouse, DeSagana Diop, former Laker Devean George, Maurice Ager, $3 million and two future No. 1 draft picks. In a second deal, the Nets send guard Antoine Wright to Dallas for a future second-round pick.

Do you think that Dallas is giving up way too much for an aging 35-year-old point guard. Let's forget about how much better Kidd is over Devin Harris, healthy even, and... the fact that they are losing Stackhouse and Diop? That's gotta hurt Dallas' depth. Those two are solid playoff performers.

What does this mean for the West?
