PHOENIX – The New Jersey Nets and Dallas Mavericks have discussed a trade that would reunite Vince Carter and Jason Kidd, with Carter joining the Mavericks, a league source familiar with the discussions said Thursday night.
The proposed deal, which isn’t imminent, would send Carter, Keyon Dooling and Eduardo Najera to the Mavericks for Josh Howard and Jerry Stackhouse.
Nets executives are still reluctant to trade Carter, but are determined to let teams make their best offers all the way to next Thursday’s trade deadline.
The Mavericks have lost guard Jason Terry to a broken hand and desperately need perimeter scoring to stay a contender in the Western Conference. The Nets’ and Mavericks’ front offices engineered the Jason Kidd-Devin Harris blockbuster at the trade deadline a year ago. Nets GM Kiki Vandeweghe and Mavs GM Donnie Nelson have been active trading proposals, league sources say.
Carter, 31, has inspired significant interest throughout the league. The San Antonio Spurs are pursuing him and have discussed a proposal that would include Roger Mason, Bruce Bowen and Fabricio Oberto. While the Spurs also have interest in Detroit’s Rasheed Wallace, a Pistons source says the teams have not had any conversations.
For the Nets, the motivation to move Carter is mostly financial. The franchise is losing tens of millions of dollars a year and moving Carter would clear more cap space for 2010. Nevertheless, Nets president Rod Thorn wants to make the playoffs and believes he has his best chance with Carter on the roster. Carter is in the second season of a five-year extension that pays him close to $80 million through 2012. Only a fraction of the contract’s final season is guaranteed.
Carter is having a good season, averaging 21 points, five rebounds and five assists. The Nets are 24-29 and one game out of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
Roger Mason, Bruce Bowen and Fabricio Oberto for Sheed works under the cap.
And all those Spurs' contracts expire after next season.
And we're not having conversations with the Spurs?
Why the fuck not?
Wasn't I praising Roger Mason Jr on here years ago? He's still around? Damn!
I wouldn't want any of those fucks here, not even for 1 game.
Its just a way for us to get Bosh. We take on O'Neal's bad contract with him since it will be coming off the books before 2010 anyway.
theres some amare to the cavs rumors going on..team would be hard to beat. something like jjhickson, wally, and either a first or boobie gibson for amare. i doubt kerr would want to see a amare/lebron duo so I doubt that happens
It's taken a while but I've come to the conclusion that I don't want Amare... too many ? marks...
Will he re-sign... if not we gave up talent for an empty bag
The Micro fracture is real and not likely to go away
Offense only... a max contract for a one dimensional???
We're better off looking for an upside players at a fraction of the cost (Tyrus Thomas, Jason Thompson etc)
we lack a legit scorer who can work in the paint. hes athletic and can easily average 20/10 on the pistons. the injury part scares me and i don't like his ego, but he's still a top player in the league
Glenn, they would be here to bridge the 1 year gap we find ourselves in.Quote:
