Dallas does the deal to get a legit PG to run the offense. At 6'4" Kidd is big enough and effective enough to play the 2 in the dallas offense. Dallas gets a decent backup 4 to Dirk. In this scenario, Terry goes to the bench to take Stack's role.
NJ does this deal to clear significant salary cap space. The Mavs throw in some additional cash and/or picks to sweeten this deal and are able to upgrade without damaging their core.
