90% of all the trades the Mavs fail to pull off upset me. This one actually makes me happy. It would be great to get out from under Terry's 3yr/30mil, and get rid of Howard's antics, but giving away a good chunk of our very limited talent for a 5th pick in a draft that goes 3-5 deep just doesnt make sense.

Getting rid of Howard or JET isn't really a big chunk of the talent. Especially if it was getting rid of JET's one dimensional offense. Not even sure why the Wiz would even take on his contract.

In my head I know it would have made for a good deal to get JET's contract off the books with such a trade but in my heart I'm to big a JET fan to ever want to see that happen.
