According to ESPN, Devean George will exercise his rare no-trade clause to block a proposed blockbuster trade that would have sent Jason Kidd to the Dallas Mavericks. We chronicled the trade and its fantasy impact on FBP earlier today , but apparently it is NOT going to go through.

This one deserves an "OH SNAP!!!"
JKidd has just been picked and blocked by a "B Team" forward. Things just hit the fan. Devean George has control of his contract and he can veto the trade if he does not like how it will turn out. So as of right now Jason Kidd is not going anywhere.

Jason Kidd appears like he is finally headed to Dallas. However, in a loaded Western Conference, is this move enough to put Dallas over the hump?

Jason Kidd of the Dallas Mavericks.
Jason Kidd of the Dallas Mavericks.
Amazing.
Current Mavericks owner Mark Cuban must have really been impressed with Kidd's performance in his Mavericks loss last Sunday (February 10, 2008) at the Izod Center in East Rutherford, N.J.
Kidd finished with that contest with 13 points, 14 assists, and 6 rebounds (falling 4 caroms short...

So i wrote yesterday briefly about the Jason Kidd trade to the Mavs, which at the time seemed imminent. However, after a couple of interesting developments, maybe not as much.

It's silly that Devean George, who averages 3.6 ppg, has a no-trade clause. But don't blame him....blame the system.

The headline does not lie, folks. Steve Nash will play in trash shoes tonight. Well? not garbage, per se, but pretty close. He is debuting the Nike Trash Talk, the first performance basketball shoe made from manufacturing waste. Gotta love this. Yes Nike, you are socially responsible. You get brownie points from us.
