Jason Kidd is on his way out of New Jersey in one of the largest player trades since Miami acquired Antoine Walker in a 13 player trade back in August 2005. New Jersey is asking for equal value and Dallas is giving them everything but the kitchen sink to fill that need. The breakdown looks something like this:

 

New Jersey Receives:

G Devin Harris

C DeSagana Diop

G Maurice Ager

G Trenton Hassell

F Keith Van Horn

Two first round draft picks and three million in cash 

 

Dallas Receives:

G Jason Kidd

F Malik Allen

F Antoine Wright

 

You have to ask yourself though, is an aging Jason Kidd worth so much? Dallas better pray the right decision was made and Devin Harris doesn’t turn into an all star overnight in New Jersey, or Dallas fans will look at Mark Cuban in contempt.

According to ESPN, here are some of the biggest trades in NBA history, try and wrap your mind around these player moves.
