Mark Cuban... if you are smart, you will go after him. Get a smart, crafty veteran, who knows how to run PG the right way, has a very good jumpshot, and can play some solid defense.

yes bc Cassell is the missing piece...Mavs problems are much bigger than a backup PG
Anyone see him club Rajon Rondo last night? Guess he won't be going to Boston
he;s going to the Celtics. Every dinosaur wants to go there.
LOL..... he's mad that Rondo is taking his ring...
Cassell had that championship experience.
Of course, Devean had that too, but unlike him, Sam is actually a proven winner, a true leader and clutch player.
I'm not saying hes the missing piece. But he would certainly solve one of our bigger problems, in someone being capable of running the offense efficiently on a nightly basis. He is a much higher IQ player than both Terry and Harris combined, and that is a HUGE issue that we have at PG, as shown the other night against Boston when Terry made one of the poorest passes I've ever witnessed that basically gave the game away.
Being a spurs fan, what would you think if the Clippers bought him out, and the Mavs were able to sign him?
I wouldn't like that.
AJ will easily trust Sam.
Sam is a good decision maker, and he won't hesitate to yell at Dirk if necessary.
I'll have Cassell as starting PG, and Terry as a SG.
Devin will be the energy guy from the bench.
Sam is also one of the rare PG's who can post up smaller PG's.
That post-up thing was the FIRST thing that came to my mind too. That would add a great dimension to our offense.
As for Terry, I prefer him coming off the bench. I think a guard duo of Cassell and Harris would be pretty tough, as they are both effective PGs, but in completely different ways. Cassell is more traditional and methodical, while Harris is a fast paced penetrator/scorer. I think despite being almost completely opposite, they would be a very good backcourt duo. And if we face teams with bigger guards, we can throw Eddie Jones in for the start at the 2.
Cassell would be great, but if he gets bought out then the Celtics are probably the frontrunner. If there's somebody on my wish list right now, it's Mike Miller.
Watch JJ Barea try running the offense and tell me we don't need another PG.
If we can completely eliminate the amount of time Terry plays point, we'll be MUCH better off.
Cassell/Harris at PG and then Terry/Jones at SG is pretty damn good IMO.
...I don't know if Cassell is going to Boston now after that flagrant, lol.
I wouldn't mind Mike Miller, but I'm more interested in getting a high IQ player at PG. The desicion making at that position sometimes is just downright awful. We need someone that can find Howard, Dirk, Damp, and Terry for easy buckets.
Agreed.
Mike Miller would definitely solve the gaping hole at SG, since Terry is so undersized, but Memphis won't want his contract. I'm about to bust a nut thinking of Miller getting open looks from behind the arc when teams double Dirk. If we could get Cassell, I would be ecstatic.
Yea, he would definitely be nice too. I just want to see the Mavs make some kind of move.
Yeah, I don't think this team can afford to stand pat. I don't advocate a complete 180 degree shift like Phoenix, but teams like Memphis and such are probably willing to unload players like Miller in exchange for expiring contracts, picks, young players. I'd like to see the Mavs do something as well.
It's more like a 45 degree shift, but I see your point.
Cassell would make the Mavs a better team. This would in the best intrest of their future, than trading for Kidd.
Much agreed. I wonder if Terry + crap would get us Cassell and possibly Maggette.
Let's compare...
Shawn Marion
Best fast break player with Nash
Best finisher on the break
Best athlete
Best defender
Best all-around player
Effective on offense without shots
Plays with effort
Shaq
Slow and can't run fast break
Fat, old and unathletic
Average at best defender
Average at best rebounder
Needs shots to be effective offensively
Plays lethargically unless he's getting all the shots
I'd say that is a 180 degree turn.
What would it take to get Miller? I'm assuming Memphis will take dog for him considering what they gave away Gasol for.
I would definitely have done that at the start of the year. Right now... that would be a tough move to make, and it may make it hard to win a le this year, but for the future, that would be a great move.
As for Cassell, we could get him without trading, as he is trying to get his contract bought out.
