It's Official

It's official. Jason Kidd is a Dallas Maverick again. Owner Mark Cuban and an NBA spokesman said this morning the deal is completed and has been reviewed and made official by the league.

The trade, which involves Keith Van Horn coming out of semi-retirement, has been completed and approved by the league.

Kidd is expected to join his new team for practice this afternoon, and Devin Harris is already with the Nets, the newspaper reports.

In addition to Harris, DeSagana Diop, Trenton Hassell, Maurice Ager and Van Horn go to the Nets, with two first-round draft picks, $3 million in cash and a $1.6 million trade exception. Malik Allen and swingman Antoine Wright will go to the Mavericks.

Hopefully this will turn out good for the Mavs by snagging a trophy and some rings at post-season end. Interesting to see how this pans out... Johnny OUT.
