you think some guy named "the batman" would know how to search.
The Timberwolves have, indeed, asked for Damp from Dallas, but they're offering only Marion, Stevenson, Carroll 36 minutes ago via txt

It's not nighttime yet
Marion Stephenson and Carroll for Jefferson I'm not even sure if that trade would save Minnesota money.
so the can waive him and save 15 mil
Is this a trick question? I can't tell
All 32 teams have inquired me about our low post presence and veteran full of savvy, Erick Dampier.
We've listened to a mul ude of offers. Even a tempting one from the Lakers where they offered Gasol and Kobe straight up. However, we feel like that would be a scary thing if the Mavs wound up with those two. They might do something weird like dunk the ball, or make clutch shots, or will us to victory.
That's not Maverick basketball.
Maverick basketball consists of a solid group of savvy veterans who make intelligent savvy plays and we feel Kobe and Pau don't bring us that right now. Once they turn 38 we might go down that line but now is not the time.
The only offers we are listening too are the Bucks looking to shop Stackhouse but there is no way we are parting with Dampier![]()
so then shouldn't you be Bruce Wayne?
Mavs front office is crazy. They overvalue and overplay their hands.
marion and carroll are bad contracts.
Damn, the T-wolves now have as it stands, Jefferson, Darko, Beasley, Pekovic, Flynn plus a whole lot of other 7 footers on their roster. They upgraded their coaching staff and now have Kurt Rambis as head coach with Reggie Theus and Bill Laimbeer as assistants.
These guys could be really really good and show up as a darkhorse.
lol calling Kurt Rambis a coaching staff upgrade. He's arguably the worst coach in the NBA.
See that is something we are aware of at the Mavs front office.
As it stands, this Timberwolves team has enough savvy veterans to make them le contenders as it is. If we give them a guy like Dampier for Jefferson, the NBA would probably investigate collusion.
There's no way they can have Dampier for garbage like that. Dampier makes them a dynasty instantly
well he did help save the city of cascade from a nuclear terrorist attack
Touche, forgot to change out the costume...be right back
Why does Donnie Nelson still have a job? He has more spending power than any GM in the league, but has put a team together that can't get out of the 1st round, and the only reason it's a playoff team is because of a player his daddy found.
I met emigrants from Cuba referred to as the Taino. These Taino had perfected a craft of how to nurture, pack, paper wrap, and then smoke tobacco in a form called cigars, a form of smoking I was quite unfamiliar with. The Taino would share a ceremonial cigar with people they traded goods with as a sign of the trade pact. When I first approached a group of Taino with what I felt was a very enticing trade proposal, one of the Taino blew smoke in my face. I was shocked at the rude display and did not know what the to think. And by that I mean when Mark rejects a Dampier for Al Jefferson deal, I have to wonder, "what the is this Cuban smoking?"
I loved the reports that after firing Kevin McHale, the T-Wolves were looking for a "McHale type coach"
What the ?Didn't the Mavs say that no one is interested in the Dampier contract? The Mavs could get ing Al Jefferson possibly from this trade.
Donnie and Cuban are displaying a level of stupidity never before achieved by them (and they've done some pretty stupid in the past). I get comfort that even if they weren't completely inept assholes, it wouldn't matter because they're not beating the Lakers and Miami. So the whole thing is pointless.
The found a McHale type GM, but I'm not even gonna give Rambis enough credit as a McHale type coach. When McHale had a healthy Jefferson in 2009 he had the Timberwolves playing around .500 basketball, Rambis trying the triangle was more stupid than anything McHale did as a coach.
Then again, I don't think Big Haywood's pussy would allow Jefferson to play in front of him.
lol at donnie thinking roddy will save them because its the only good player he has found in the draft since his dad left
Yeah they are idiots...bet they were playing hardball....might have worked until all this ING TEAMS got trade exemptions.
Donnie and Cuban are idiots....should have just traded Damps contract and a 1st rounder and just get Big Al. I have no doubt Cleveland is going to over pay to get him now...esp with their owner being in a manic phase.
You're right though...doesn't matter...Mavs ain't winning with or without him.
