[oh the horror]

Per Marc Stein. Not sure how credible this is but we shall see

Can they just "release" him?

Can they just "release" him?

I think his contract can be "stretched" over his remaining years plus 2 seasons to lessen the tax blow, which also releases him.

However, there is no reason for them to do this, because they'd still be over the tax and wouldn't be able to sign a replacement. Trade or nothing in this case I'm thinking.

damn deron williams. pls bargnani, smith and kevin garnett in addition

[SCdac]

lol he snubbed the Mavs 3 years ago and now wants in. hopefully he's not a rondo 2.0 for the Mavs, at least Deron can shoot

[COnDEMnED]

If this happens, things go from bad to worse for the Mavs.

[BasedTom]

He's truly lost it.

[clipps]

Haha, now he wants to go to the Mavs after bailing on them 3 years ago. I bet the Mavs will be dumb enough to bring him onboard. I think I'd rather have Rondo at this point.

Pls mavs do this

Damn Deron fell off hard

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Damn, Mavs stay winning the offseason

[BlackWhiteGreen]

Deron, even in current condition, makes the Mavs good enough to not be a bottom 7 team - win for the Celtics

Nets lose a player for nothing and drop further down the standings - win for Celtics

if Deron and Joe go then Lopez will be putting up 30 a night (in 50 games)

[ShackEelOKneel]

Me from 7 years ago is excited about this.
