The second-leading scorer in Nets history was surprised by the trade.
"I didn't know anything was going on and then the next thing I know my phone didn't stop ringing for about a week," he said. "When this happened I was upset, but after calming down and evaluating everything I became excited."
The 6-foot-8, 200-pound swingman is known mostly for his exploits in the last two dunk contests, winning it in 2007 and finishing second to Dwight Howard this year. In games that count, he has career averages of 8.1 points and 2.2 rebounds. He's played for Boston, Minnesota and Houston in his three-year career since being drafted 18th overall coming out of high school.
The Mavericks are hoping that pairing Green -- who is still only 22 -- with Jason Kidd will bring out the best in the former teen prodigy.
Jason Kidd needs big men help like he had awhile back with Kenyon Martin in New Jersey!
This move could work well but the Mavs will always have trouble with the LAKERS!!
