butler out for season

[Phillip]

:cry

[MavFan6488]

time for a stephen jackson trade.

[Phillip]

but like ive said in another thread, if Roddy gets back soon, this could be a good chance for him to show whether or not he truly is capable of doing what we hope he can do. with butler gone, that means more shots will be available for him.

it will be interesting to see how the team steps up in his absence.

[Fpoonsie]

That sucks. Hate to see a player go down to injury, regardless of the team he's on. Get well soon, Caron! :toast

[TimmehC]

[hater]

sucks. Gone through this when Manu was out in 08

[Killakobe81]

It sucks. for him and for the team. It was a chance to see if they are for real ...hopefully this is the only major injury they deal with ...

[bostonguy]

Well that fucking sucks. Mavs have to make a trade and make one very very soon. They cant stand pat. Roddy would be a boost but when is the fucker coming back? I thought he was already supposed to be back already.

[monosylab1k]

At least our hearts are broken now, instead of game 6/7 of round 1.

[Killakobe81]

If they trade, what do they give up? Roddy and Tyson? Haywood has little value and I doubt the teams that could use a big like OKC have a SF that is worth much back in return. Marion can start and they play zone most of the time anyway ...you could give Deshawn or the rookie James back up mins at the 3 when roddy comes back ...

[icem]

that really sucks........

[monosylab1k]

unless you can get stephen jackson on the cheap, just don't bother making a deal. play the season out and be first round fodder, then try and reload for next season. IIRC Terry will be a good sized expiring so that could be something teams want to trade for.

[Darth_Pelican]

Bring in Allen Iverson and Steve Francis.

[JamStone]

I saw it mentioned in another thread by someone, but perhaps Vince Carter might be the guy. Suns might be willing to trade him for Butler's contract and DeShawn Stevenson and a pick. He might not be the ideal pick-up, but the Mavs might be able to get him without giving up Chandler and/or Roddy.

[Roddy Beaubois]

Fuck no to Vince Carter.

[monosylab1k]

better than nothing ... but Deshawn is actually playing prety well and without him Tyson is the only "toughness" they would be left with ...

IDK i can see the Mavs wanting deshawn to bang with Kobe and Manu in the playoffs ...

[Killakobe81]

I'd rather have AIDS tbh.

Wow VC hasnt falen off THAT bad ... LOL

[sananspursfan21]

too bad, i want the spurs to beat them with no excuses

[djohn2oo8]

For the love of God, we will pay you to take Martin...But again, the Mavs don't need someone else who disappears late in games

[monosylab1k]

SJax or (reluctantly) Iggy or just tank the season and try to pull a draft lottery miracle out of our ass like the Spurs.

[Roddy Beaubois]

Wow VC hasnt falen off THAT bad ... LOL

Hes a jumpshooting pussy in the form of Jason Terry. When things get rough, he packs it in. Hes the exact opposite of what we need.
Get me Stephen Jackson, Iggy or Martin if you can get them for a fair price. If not, just play it out.

[boutons_deux]

SJax is The Man in Charlotte, would even start on the No-Rings bunch?

[Pistons < Spurs]

Tayshaun Prince.

Problem is I don't see what the Pistons would want in return. Prince and Butler are both expiring contracts, but Detroit would obviously want to get something out of it. Unless we also include Max or Bynum for Roddy ... but then trying to match salaries gets difficult.

[21_Blessings]

This is Ghazi's fault.



Get me Stephen Jackson, Iggy or Martin if you can get them for a fair price. If not, just play it out.

Yeah, you don't want Martin.

[sefant77]

Sucks for the Mavs and sucks for Butler, he was in his contract year. Now i guess he will get kind of MLE money and not more. He will lose a lot of money.

[Pelicans78]

Hornets will try to sucker the Mavs into trading for Ariza. Don't do it Cubes!

[Pelicans78]

I'll be honest. I never liked Butler that much. He's ok, but I prefer Marion at SF. I would look to acquire a shooter like Kapono.

[monosylab1k]

tbh if Roddy ever comes back, another SF really isn't what the Mavs need. Stevenson could probably play a little backup 3 along with his 2-guard duties. They need a backup PF more than anything.

[redzero]

I hear that Trevor Ariza guy is pretty good.

[monosylab1k]

Mono I don't see how you want to just tank the rest of the season and "reload" next year..we're running out of "next years" we got about one more imo. Let's not pretend like Butler is this untouchable and the writings on the wall...Sjax or Iggy would be nice, paired with a fully healthy roddy.

nigga you were the one like a week ago who was all "Hell no I wouldn't trade Butler for Melo" and now you're talking like he's chopped liver. Make up your mind, trick!

[ElNono]

Butler wasn't the piece anyways. This will force Cubes to actually find that second scorer.
The question is who?

I don't think tanking is an option when the Mavs are positioned pretty well in the standings. You don't want to waste a season of the Chandler/Dirk duo. Plus Kidd is only getting older.

Butler/Roddy/Haywood for Jackson/Diop

non Mav fans, is this trade at all realistic? Would the Bobcats go for it? I'm basing this partially on Jordan wanting to rebuild/Jordan having a hard-on for former UNC guys/Jordan being dumb.

[Roddy Beaubois]

Are you aware that Diop is out for the season?
I wouldn't do that trade.

[monosylab1k]

although it's moot since Cuban is basically on record that he won't trade Roddy unless it's in a package to get a superstar.

[monosylab1k]

Are you aware that Diop is out for the season?
I wouldn't do that trade.

no i didn't. doesn't matter, Mahinmi can handle backup C.

[monosylab1k]

Why keep throwing roddy in there just for the hell of it? only way jordan gets rid of sjax is if they decide his services aren't needed on a rebuilding team and want to shed salary. then you just trade him for caron's expiring straight up + trade exceptions cash maybe a pick etc. Let's not give up roddy just for fun in a knee jerk.

Not even Jordan is that dumb. That's Isiah Thomas level stupid there.

[nkdlunch]

sucks.

funny thing is Spurs have just what Mavs need to run next to Kidd and Dirk, Dick Jefferson.

[sefant77]

Jax
Crash (Bobcats need to call it a season)
Prince
Iggy
Rip (do not want)
Mayo (unhappy and Grizzlies are the most stupid franchise in the NBA)

[DeadlyDynasty]

Life goes on.

[Roddy Beaubois]

no i didn't. doesn't matter, Mahinmi can handle backup C.

I don't think he has proven that he can tbh. I don't want that faggot Diop on the payroll for another two years anyway.
If you cut Roddy out of that trade, I might be able to take the risk on losing Haywood.

[monosylab1k]

let's also be real Mavs fans. How much is Roddy REALLY going to be able to help. He's going to be rusty as hell and not 100% probably until next season.

[tdunk21]

thats a huge blow to the mavs.....thats why dirk shoulda signed with the spurs for MLE......

[monosylab1k]

I don't think he has proven that he can tbh. I don't want that faggot Diop on the payroll for another two years anyway.

I was a Haywood believer for a while, even as sribb was pronouncing him the worst signing in the history of humanity, but Haywood is just intent on being a cunt. When they trade him, good riddance.

[Phillip]

I'll be honest. I never liked Butler that much. He's ok, but I prefer Marion at SF. I would look to acquire a shooter like Kapono.

I like Butler, but I agree that Marion probably fits at the starting SF position better for what the Mavs need. I always thought that Butler would actually be better off the bench.

[nkdlunch]

mavfans do not get any of your hopes up. Truth is this news just destroyed any real mav chances to even get to WCF.

Just remember those stupid spurs fans that beleived Spurs could beat the Mavs w/out Manu.(me included) Learn from that experience...

[Shank]

When Kidd and Dirk are a couple of your main pieces, the idea of "next year" has a very short lifespan. If it's not this year for a team with Kidd at the helm, the year after looks even more bleak. They know they need to build off the early season success of this year and reload in time for a playoff run this season. They'll definitely make a move, but they may see how these other guys step up and hold pat until the All-Star break.

[monosylab1k]

Is it possible for a Spurs fan to talk about another team without bringing up their own? Who gives a fuck about Manu in this case?

And I'm not 100% sold that the Mavs chances of progressing through the playoffs rested on the shoulders of Caron Butler.

[Roddy Beaubois]

It seems like squirtles contract is never fucking ending.

[Shank]

You mean all those years of seeing the other guys, um, never step up isn't entering their minds?

I hope you're a fan of what Jason Terry brought early this season because you're about to get a full dose of that amount of action. The good thing is - every 5th game, he'll kick some ass.

It rested on the shoulders of a capable #2 scorer, which Butler could have been. As it is, there's nobody now. The Mavs can't seriously expect Roddy to step in and be a 17-20 PPG guy right away?

[JamStone]

I was a Haywood believer for a while, even as sribb was pronouncing him the worst signing in the history of humanity, but Haywood is just intent on being a cunt. When they trade him, good riddance.

Getting off topic, but how are the Mavs going to trade Haywood?

Other than the season his contract expires that is.

[monosylab1k]

My only hope was that Michael Jordan has spent too much time gambling to look at box scores, then when Dallas throws a trade offer out, he takes a quick glance at Haywood's Wikipedia page, sees "University Of North Carolina" on there, and accepts the trade.

[Shank]

You mean all those years of seeing the other guys, um, never step up isn't entering their minds?

I think the "other guys" include

Terry (hot and cold)
Marion (liked him at the 4, would rather he kept up that role)
Stevenson (mono's favorite)
Ajinca backing up Dirk (to aid in the move of marion at the 3)
Dojo (in limited minutes. we know carlisle hates rookies)

And, if the little shit stops breaking his foot again

Beaubois

[nkdlunch]

well the situations are similar. Butler + Manu of 08 had similar impact on their teams.

this is exactly what I though of chances or beating mavs in round 1. Brutal awakening awaits you.

We're back in 2006 mode, then.

They won't stand pat, though. Don't worry.

[Shank]

Maybe if the playoffs started tomorrow. Last I checked, we're not even halfway through the season and there's still the trade deadline. A lot can happen, obviously.

[monosylab1k]

Ajinca backing up Dirk (to aid in the move of marion at the 3)

oh god, please no. Seeing that guy jack up errant 3point shots and driving with reckless abandon makes me want to vomit. He's like a 7 foot tall Barea.

Just spit-balling, but I can see the Blazers maybe being good trade partners for y'all. Camby's getting older, so they might consider taking on Haywood if they could get Beaubois, picks, and spare parts for the oft-injured Batum and Pryz and pieces. I'm thinking most teams aren't in serious cap trouble given they've had 2 years to adjust to the global financial meltdown, so Butler will probably just turn into an injury that gets written off the books as an exception.

Memphis or Golden State might also be interested in trading redundant back-court players in exchange for picks and parts.

[Shank]

He's not completely untradeable. He can be moved to a team that's in desperate need for a center. Yes, that contract looks rough but that's because he's a whore that shut down once he got his money and is no longer 'the man' at the position. Ship him off to a new team, plug him in as the starter, show that he's going to be a vital part of your team and he'll step up once again. He's not completely devoid of talent. Teams always find themselves overpaying for center talent. It's the market.

[nkdlunch]

what about Fernandez?

he does not fit in Portland and a new beginning might be what his career needs.

Fernandez for Haywood straight up?

[Roddy Beaubois]

oh god, please no. Seeing that guy jack up errant 3point shots and driving with reckless abandon makes me want to vomit. He's like a 7 foot tall Barea.

Sucks. In my four ringed fantasy world, I was hoping for Mavs to get the two seed and the Lakers to get the third seed and for the Mavs to give the Lakers all they could handle. This injury makes that fantasy less likely, although not impossible.

I was never too impressed with Caron's fit with the Mavs. He could score but was it ever within the offense? Then again, I don't mean to kick him while he down. Karma might break my leg. Money outweighing problems on the Mavs team. They sticking to the script, you hatin' fans skipping scenes.

Be good or be good at it.

[#41 Shoot Em Up]

Bottom line we know Cuban is going to try and replace Butler, we just have to wait and see who that is going to be.
Anyone who thinks this season is over is in serious panic mode. No drop in the standings as long as Dirk gets back healthy.
Now we wait for what Cuban pulls off

I don't see why Philly takes that, other than to get rid of Brand.

I would love Brand as a backup to Dirk, but for some reason most Mav fans vomit at the idea.

[Rummpd]

I like Caron whom I met when he was a Wizard and he is a class act. Offensively the Mavs will be ok with Stevenson, Marion and Roddy B/Terry playing more, but his loss will hurt their defense on the greats like Kobe or Manu when it counts.

nah fuck nocioni. and this trade is even less likely than the other one.

the only way Philly trades Iggy is if a team takes Brand's contract too. I would do this in a heartbeat. But most Mavs fans think it's stupid because it would ruin their financial flexibility in the future. To which I have two replies - "What financial flexibility?" and "What future?"

[ElNono]

or even this trade, still getting a backup PF without having to take on Brand's contract

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=2ecttav

ehhhh... that would be a good trade, imo. Maybe not the greatest, but Nocioni can play D and if Iggy gets in the running game with Kidd/Marion, it can work.
The question is wether Philly feels like calling off the season. They've been playing decent lately.

[monosylab1k]

What do you mean you don't see why they'd do it? They'd be getting rid of 2 contracts they don't want and opening up all kinds of space. Iggy is disgruntled and they don't see him fitting in with their long term plans they've said.

If they just want to dump salary, then sure they'd do it. But I still think teams will demand Roddy, especially with the knowledge that Caron is out for the year and the Mavs are fucked unless they make a move.

[#41 Shoot Em Up]

It just depends on how desperate Philly is to get Iggys contract off the books.
Maybe they won't require us to take on Brand, words can't explain that contract

Exactly. Fuck money. It's not my cash to begin with. With your team headed up by Dirk and Kidd, the time to make a move is now. You don't have a team of 25 year-olds looking to build a dynasty. If you want to win the big one, you have 1-2 years to do so with that core.

[Roddy Beaubois]

I don't see why Philly takes that, other than to get rid of Brand.

It gets rid of massive salary. I think Philly has realized that Iggy is not part of their long term and has been exploring the idea of trading him for some time.
DB just posed an article on Dallas interest in Iggy, but for some reason its for "insider" members only. Fish finally sold out.

[#41 Shoot Em Up]

We need to stop acting like we are replacing an irreplaceable player.
Butler is a good player, but I count 4 players that we would not be able to live without on this team: Chandler, Dirk(obvious), Terry, Kidd.
We don't need a big trade just a small upgrade to cover his production.

just what i've been recommending tbh. Butler to cleveland for Varejao + trashes

[frodo]

unless you can get stephen jackson on the cheap, just don't bother making a deal. play the season out and be first round fodder, then try and reload for next season. IIRC Terry will be a good sized expiring so that could be something teams want to trade for.

you have more than enough expiring contracts this season you must be stupid to not make the most of them. with Kidd/Dirk 1yr older god knows if they are gonna play this good next season. mavs on win-now mode now and that's when you should be doing everything you can to get the biggest possible instant power.

make a trade/waive move on TC if you need to. package TC & butler and trade them for a 17m+ player, then sign him back a month later for vet minimum. haywood will do fine at C during the time w/o TC and when TC returns, we STACKED

we MF'N stacked

Can someone translate this?

Another excellent post tbh

nah fuck nocioni. and this trade is even less likely than the other one.

the only way Philly trades Iggy is if a team takes Brand's contract too. I would do this in a heartbeat. But most Mavs fans think it's stupid because it would ruin their financial flexibility in the future. To which I have two replies - "What financial flexibility?" and "What future?"

iggy would be a good guy to have, but im not sure if hes worth losing stevenson. trigga been doing good this season as a starting SG, or starting 3 in these two games. dirk/kidd ain't having too many more years to play this good, that's why more scrutiny is needed in making a trade.

brand would be too MF'N short to play C so he'd be no more than dirks dub, meaning dirk will only give him a bit more than 10min/game as long as he stays healthy. unsatisfied with the lack of minutes dude would also "tank it like a cunt" pretty much like haywood does

or even this trade, still getting a backup PF without having to take on Brand's contract

mavs need a backup PF with length that rebounds and plays some solid D. TC is our only reliable rebounder now and thats definitely not enough. a doggy big would do a world of good for us imo

mavs should seriously look into the possibility of signing varejao imo, dude plays either PF/C so he'd give cover for both TC and dirk. nocioni would be no bigger than a fringe player imho, just a younger version of findog

I think that Carlisle needs to give Mahinimi a chance at backup PF.

some people complain about Cardinal, but I like the guy. He stretches the floor with his 3pt shot, plays hard on defense, and is constantly hustling. very good and smart passer too.

I can't view the video here at work unfortunately.

Dude is a helluva shooter though. The last guard I've on the Mavs who was as fluid and versatile of a shooter as Roddy was Steve Nash, and Nash IMO is the best shooter in NBA history. From what I saw of Roddy last year, there isn't a single type of jumper he cant hit. Fadeaway, pull up, sidestepping, off-balance, catch and shoot, hand-in-face, off the dribblem, while being fouled... dude could hit all of them, and did so quite proficiently, not just one lucky one here and there. Hopefully he can stay healthy and keep working hard like he has been. His potential is sky-high as long as he doesn't give up.

At least our hearts are broken now, instead of game 6/7 of round 1.

That sucks for Butler.....

Cardinal played his ass off against Aldridge last night. Tough assignment.
