Devean George Got Traded!


The big NBA news of the day is the 4-team trade that is sending Shawn Marion from Toronto to Dallas.

But of course, who are the other players? Interestingly, three players connected to the Nets/Mavs trade featuring Jason Kidd and Devin Harris are involved.

Jerry Stackhouse is headed to Memphis. He was expected to be part of the Nets deal, and was presumed to getting a buyout, only to return to Dallas. Except he happily boasted about this to the media, so the NBA nixed the deal, and it had to be redone. Well, I guess he kept his mouth shut this time. Interestingly, the Nets were mildly interested in acquiring him and not buying him out this offseason.

Antoine Wright, sent with Kidd to Dallas, is going to Toronto. Nothing more to comment on that.

But the BIG little player on the move is my old buddy DEVEAN GEORGE!!! The man who stalled the trade because he wanted early bird money as a free agent is now being shipped to CANADIA!

So long, buddy! Enjoy Turgel!

(I don't know who the other players are yet, for the record.)
