Jerry Stackhouse may not be all smiles if the Jason Kidd trade does not go through
Jerry Stackhouse gave an interview saying New Jersey would buy out his contract, then after the 30 day waiting period, Stack could return to the Mavericks in a prearranged deal. source
This is illegal. It is called tampering. The league may not allow Jerry to return to the Mav’s if the trade happened.
Mark Cuban does not want to lose Stack.
Wow, this just keeps getting better. First, Devean George and his Bird Rights, and now Jerry Stackhouse and tampering.
Just think how happy David Stern must feel to stick the dagger in Cuban for once.
Losing Stack to gain Kidd, may hurt the Mav’s depth, but still would improve their team.
This deal just got more complicated, but will still probably happen in some form or another.
LeBron wants action
Meanwhile, LeBron James is upset that the Cavaliers have done nothing to try and get Kidd, in spite of LeBron’s lobbying for Jason. It is doubtful that the Nets would leave Jason Kidd in the same conference.
NBA Basketball Fan Question Will Dallas and New Jersey get this deal done in time for the trade deadline?
As always, any NBA Basketball related comments are welcome.

I think the deal will get done. I don’t know if Devean will come to his senses or not. I read that he’s going to LA this weekend to escape the media spotlight.
Cuban has, apparently, softened his stance on re-signing Keith Van Horn and adding him to the trade (this is just so weird). But if Devean doesn’t give-in, I imagine they’ll take option #2.
Regardless, I hope Stackhouse just falls on his head and ends up being traded to the Grizzlies or the Timberwolves. If the NBA won’t allow Stackhouse back on the Mavs — he deserves to go to the worst team in the NBA for his idiotic and arrogant comments.
