08:05 AM ET 12.14 | Fueling trade speculation going into the weekend is a ticking clock. That's because Saturday is the day when players acquired before the start of this season can be aggregated into trades. For the Mavericks, that's about half their roster. ... The Mavericks, according to president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson, don't have anything close to what could be termed hot-and-heavy discussions going on. That makes sense, actually. The team has played well enough, hanging around .500, that it would be prudent to wait until Dirk Nowitzki returns and find out exactly what the Mavericks have before they start deciding fates of players. The hope is Nowitzki returns before New Year's Day.
