So Donnie, the price of moving up in the draft was to high to get a guy like Chalmers or Douglas-Roberts but you'll s out 2 2nd rounders and case for Shawne Williams....really?
Sounds like Cheech for the Chong that's already on the Mavs....
Does Dallas even have a damn draft pick next year?

Would it really matter if they did?
Noinch, noinch, noinch...shootin' guns, housing murderers, smokin' weed, weed, weed!
Fire in the hole.
Dallas Mavericks: where NO CARPOOLING among co-workers happens
Good trade for the Mavs
Jones sucks
Does Jones have a no-trade clause in his contract?
Don't know much about Williams, but he's got to be an upgrade over Grandpa Jones.
NBA Championship here we come.
Look at this guy.
Don't you have sex to go have?
He's from the U of M, so by default he's athletic as .
mavs average age: Jones (36) Williams (2)
Before the trade - 28.79
After the trade - 27.79
The mavs finally have a player that Hollinger seems to like
2007-08 season: Williams had a nice year on the court for a 21-year-old, something that's easy to forget in the midst of his trouble off it. He bumped his 40-minute scoring rate all the way up to 18.9, had solid rates of blocks and steals, and made a huge improvement in his free-throw rate. Add it all together and he was a solid bench player who has shown the potential to be much more. In particular, if he can get his 3-point percentage above last year's 31.4 percent his offensive game will really take off.
Scouting report: Williams has a smooth-looking outside shot off the catch and it won't surprise me if he rapidly improves as a 3-point shooter as he adjusts to the longer line. He can attack bigger players off the dribble, too, but he's a bit of a sloppy ball handler -- this only really works if he has a big quickness advantage.
Defensively, he still needs work, especially if the Pacers plan on using him at power forward. He saw a lot of time there last year in small-ball arrangements but is too light to defend the post. He's more effective as a wing but at 6-9 will have to work on his agility to stay in front of smaller players. But he did draw 16 offensive fouls in just 965 minutes, a healthy result, and he doubled his rates of steals and blocks.
2008-09 outlook: Williams has a bright future if he can clean up the off-court stuff, as his size and shooting ability make him a potential 20-point scorer a few years down the line. But he still has holes in his game that need mending, and it seems likely he'll have to do it in another location given the comments the Pacers made after his latest scrape with the law.
Most similar at age: Mike Miller
Don't you have an appointment with your gynecologist?
hes not bad at all, i know i wanted him for our spurs.
I doubt the gynecologist even gets to look at her tuna hole.
Don't get mad at me for your own loss. Have fun not getting any
Good trade by the Mavs.
Props.
Seriously?Don't get mad at me for your own loss. Have fun not getting any
Why would I be mad?
My life is full of blessings.
On top of that, I get to watch the Spurs compete for championships year after year.
Can't say the same about your Mavericks.
So your life revolves around watching a team you have no influence on how they perform. neat.
