Why does Cuban like old overhyped players so much?

[dallaskd]

Id sign him for the MLE.

[stretch]

he would be a fantastic backup for Dirk and Haywood both. give the mavericks a lot of length and versatility, since he can play both 4 and 5.

[Ditty]

if they can keep kim and resign haywood thats not bad but jermaine is more pf but if they trade dampier for al jefferson

jefferson/haywood
dirk/o'neal

not bad but still not competitive

Because aside from the 2 handful that are legit, that's all there is in the NBA.

[crc21209]

J O'Neal is waaay past his prime. I will :lol if Haywood goes to the Heat and J O'Neal goes to the Mavs...

I don't know. Why do you like harboring Nazis so much?

not competitive? that may be the best PF/C rotation in the NBA

[DesignatedT]

:lmao jermaine o'neal is a scrub. go ahead and sign him. im crossing my fingers this happens.

In today's NBA and with his knees, I think he's more of a center because he certainly doesn't have the mobility or quickness to consistently play PF in today's NBA, especially with the rising number of quick and perimeter-oriented combo forwards playing PF now, the likes of Lamar Odom or Josh Smith or Rashard Lewis or Antawn Jamison.

O'Neal is not a bad pick up, just depends on how much Dallas got him for. If it's for the full MLE?

:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

[stretch]

part of the MLE. that would be a very nice pickup.

I don't get this. For only a portion of the MLE, they can get him as the backup PF/C, and he would probably instantly be the best backup PF/C in the NBA, a guy who can also step in and start and give some decent production if someone like Dirk goes down.

[monosylab1k]

I'd rather they go after Gortat.

Jermaine O'Neal as a backup would be great for all 30 games he'll play.

[BlackSwordsMan]

Westacked

[badfish22]

If we get him as a backup fine. But a Dirk/Jermaine frontcourt will probably work as good as a Bosh/Jermaine combo did, defensively.

And we fuuuukkkked if Jermaine O'neal is our big acquisition for the summer.

[ffadicted]

Cubes knows Haywood is as good as gone

[monosylab1k]

getting O'Neal is good only if the Mavs keep Haywood. If they get O'Neal with the thought that he'll replace Haywood, that's stupid. You need them to be a center tandem.

tbh I'd still rather do DUST/Jet for Iggy/Brand, keep Haywood, and forget about JO.

[badfish22]

:wakeup

Haywood has said he likes it here. Hes gonna let Miami and Dallas bid for him.

[badfish22]

I'm starting to like this trade. And I think theres more than just money that makes this appealing to Philly. A Jet/Turner backcourt could actually work.
Do it Cubes.

[stretch]

I still kinda would like it if the Mavs could pull off the Haywood for Beasley/O'Neal SnT

Then trade Dampier, Terry, and filler for Al Jefferson

Sign Bell

PG - Kidd, Beaubois
SG - Butler, Bell, Jones
SF - Marion, Beasley
PF - Nowitzki, O'Neal, Najera
C - Jefferson, O'Neal

I think that's a very balanced team. Good defenders, scorers, shooters, rebounders all over the place. And a very versatile and deadly PF/C trio of Dirk, Jefferson, and O'Neal. If Dirk went down for a while, Jefferson could pick up some slack, and Beasley is capable of playing PF and scoring some points as well. You also have plenty of youth for the future, in Beaubois, Jones, Beasley, and Jefferson.

I would be very happy if this was the general lineup that the Mavs entered the 2010-11 season with.

[Goran Dragic]

lol starting marion

lol starting marion

lol a one-eyed guy starting ahead of you

lol comparing Shawn Marion to the 2 time MVP who made his career

[badfish22]

Id consider bringing Marion off the bench and starting Roddy in that lineup.

I mostly like that idea because it means Terry is gone

If Mavs are going to take on those to horrible contracts Philly has to take something back...ie Marion's contract for sure. Keep Terry & Caron for now...maybe trade them before the deadline if need be

[Goran Dragic]

7 point ecstasy would be a fine starting PG if you found a SG who could create for himself and make big plays down the stretch.....he's too small to be a SG tho

7 point ecstasy > Marion

[stretch]

I can see that too. The cool thing about that squad, is the extreme versatility. Butler is a 2/3. Bell is 2/3. Beaubois is 1/2. Beasley is 3/4. Marion is 3/4. O'Neal is 4/5. Jefferson is 4/5. Dirk is 4/5. The team can go very big, very small, or simply be balanced. And when Dirk goes out, Jefferson can move to 4, and O'Neal can play 5, and they will still have plenty of scoring on the floor, despite no Dirk. I would LOVE to see this lineup.

When Goran Dragic leaves the Suns and goes to Dallas are you gonna trash him too?

[badfish22]

Kidd would guard the SG.
tbh its not my ideal situation and would rather trade for Iggy or another pure SG. Then Roddy can be the primary backup at point and reduce Kidds mpg by a good amount.

[Goran Dragic]

You don't see me trashing Amare do you? I never trashed Tim Thomas when he went to the Mavs, did I?

I trash Marion and Bell because they both quit on the Suns to force a trade. Their careers ended on a really sour note with Phoenix.

[badfish22]

RobMahoney: Hopes for Mavs: Re-sign Haywood, pick up Jermaine O'Neal using part of MLE, trade Damp for shot-creating wing (Iggy maybe?)

Would still be a fine lineup.

Kidd/Roddy
Iggy/Roddy/fuckface
Butler/Marion
Dirk/Oneal
Haywood/Oneal

Not staaaaked, but a good lineup, might be able to make a run.
A Roddy/Iggy backcourt would be :wow

oh wait, whose coaching these guys again?

[BUMP]

Did you invest too??? Check this out. I got a business plan that could get us rich in 6 months if you down. Just give me $1000, you bring six people to do the same, they bring six people to do the same, so on and so on. I'll invest the dough in some high quality shirts with the new Mavs logo that no one even knows about. Trust me, I'm ahead of the curve on this one. Get in before it's too late, bump.

[sribb43]

If oneal is the backup then that is perfect, he can play the backup 4/5 and we won't have to rely on Najera. If Haywood doesn't sign, I can see RC starting him which would be terrible for the mavs

They better not offer him a Diop deal... It better be for part of the mle and 2yrs max

JO looks headed to Boston if this guy from the Miami Herald is in the know...

If C's sign him it will be considered a great signing but if Mavs signed him it would be an epic fail

[badfish22]

WojYahooNBA: Jermaine O'Neal leaning towards signing w/Boston

Hmmm this only means must resign Haywood. Hopefully trade Damp for Al Jefferson and then get the best available SG with the MLE.

Not sure why but Mavs don't really get free agents.....they pick other teams over the mavs

:elephant

[Zelophehad]

Kidd's going to get burned by some fast point guards if the Mavs play him and Iguodola in the back court. Plus Beaubois will have another guy playing a head of him.

[Sigz]

How did JO get so.... bad.... so fast?? The guy is just 31 years old.

[Zelophehad]

I'm conflicted about adding Iguodola. He's a very underrated defensive player, really he's one of the best perimeter defenders in the league but he would just provide another guy to eat into Beaubois minutes. If we could send out Jet and Barea that would be much better. Then Roddy could back up the one and the two.

[jacobdrj]

I don't know if anyone bothered to actually watch the heat and JO last season but JO is completely cooked. he is done. He is not 'relatively bad' or 'not playing up to his potential/contract'. He just sucks. I have never seen such a tremendous fall from such a smart defensive player. Unless it is simply an issue of a player trying to do too much (as he was probably trying to be the 2nd option last season) he is just dead weight. I would think twice before even signing him to the veterans exception...

[Roddy Beaubois]

Roddy would be Kidd and Iggys primary backups. He would still get around 20 mpg. And he would dig more into Kidds minutes depending on how he plays.

You just know though that asshat Carlisle will find some excuse to play Barea if he stays.

not if he values breathing.
