David Aldridge reported on TNT today that if Stackhouse does go to the Nets, the league may let the Nets buy him out but with the stipulation that the Mavs can't sign him. He also said that if Van Horn is put into the deal instead of George, the league would require him to actually play for the Nets so that it won't be just a paper trade. Funny, but I didn't hear them saying this when the Lakers signed and threw in Aaron McKie to make the Gasol trade work. In fact, McKie has been in Philadelphia working as a volunteer coach for the Sixers (who, by the way are still paying him $7 million this year.) The craziest thing Aldridge said is that the Mavs may even be able to get away with throwing Vernon Maxwell in there. Maxwell is in the same position as Van Horn and McKie in that they stopped playing but none of them filed papers with the league so their last team retains their rights.

Greg Popovich thinks the league should have some kind of trade review committee and if he had a vote, would have vetoed the Laker trade.

That is stunning news. He probably thinks Nash, Yao and Dirk should all be deported too.
