Honestly? I'd "hide" whatever player on Ellis, who is about half the player without the ball than he is when dominating it.
Another thing Dallas added is a VERY unhappy Monta Ellis. Think about it. He's almost NEVER going to touch the ball, and he's really only dangerous with it in his hands.

Im fine with Rondo in Dallas
Spares our PGs whom are the defensive weak links
The Ellis/Dirk PnR killed us last year
Teams would simply go under, waaaaaaaay under a Rondo/Dirk PnR cuz that MF cant shoot
No defense is better than a player that hogs the ball & cant shoot
Mavs new 2nd unit:
Barea
Harris
Butt
Aminu
Greg "Buckets" Smith
Man, I'm glad that they traded him away. As a second unit player, he was a problem for the Spurs.
I also like it because now the Mavs don't have the inside track on resigning him this summer when he's a free agent. I think he'd be the perfect player to platoon with Splitter. They have completely different strengths, especially defensively, and would be a perfect combo for Pop to use in different match ups: Tiago against bigger, bulkier post players like Marc Gasol/Bogut/Cousins and Wright against athletic/outside shooting bigs like Bosh/LeMarcus/Anthony Davis...
Completely serious. As Zach Lowe put it, they traded away "three rotation players to fill a hole with a star in decline who can’t shoot from anywhere — including the free throw line"
And by the way, Jermaine Oneil is done. That guy is completely washed up.
That er Jermaine only shows up against the Spurs.
Interesting move by Mavs
They will be scary at times.....but, there's only one basketball and they have at least two stars who need the ball to be effective.
I think Spurs match up better with them overall now
Rondo
offense killer
wouldn't win a shooting contest vs. Tyson Chandler
terrible, terrible basketball player
people that were scared of this trade
People don't realize what having someone like this does to an offense.
Hopefully they top it off with signing Josh Smith.
Like I said, NBA fans are enamored with the names of players more than any other sport, tbh..
stupid Spurs fans that overrate every acquisition of washed up scrubs by opposing teams ..
Malik is totally destroying these Mainstream spurs fans...
Stupid is unnecessarily harsh, especially when considering it was posed as a question than a declaration.
Says dude who defends Bonner.
it's all jokes, relax, tbh..
Most overrated player in basketball.
Play him without Dirk and floor spacing collapses (and you're relying on Charlie V being playable). Play him with Dirk and you take the ball out of Dirk's hand. I love it.
