gonna send AJ on some college scouting trips?
Since we already have absolutely no chance of going anywhere regardless of Dirk's injury, I say we hit the lotto make our pick wisely and blow the team up, if not at least make some crucial moves. Mav fans, your thoughts?
gonna send AJ on some college scouting trips?
I think this could have gone in Findog's thread... but i would hope to make the playoffs ... its all doom and gloom now but i still think this team could do some damage
I don't think they will make the playoffs.....their schedule is tough and with no dirk![]()
It's going to be really weird if the Mavs don't make the playoffs.
Dude the Mavs are the only team to beat the Spurs in the last 3 years. If they get there act together they still have a shot.
Trade Dirk, build around Kidd
That's a nice accomplishment and all, but they're also a team that's had two consecutive historic playoff collapses.
^ that, only the build around Kidd part. I'm not objective to trading a 7ft walking vagina who has only one offensive move (turnaround jumpshot) if we could get say a JOneal in return
This team is done. Time to rebuild. I think Dirk is done to. He will be like Chris Webber after this injury.
Yes, let's trade a top-ten player for a guy whose knees are shot, makes $18 million a year and doesn't play on the 2nd of b2bs.
All speculation until the MRI results are known.
Jason Kidd is over rated... he cant shoot. Simple as that.... he just can not consistently put the ball in the basket... next season Devin Harris will be better than Jason Kidd
Dirk for O'Neal? I hope the Mavs do something as idiotic as that!
I'd say either completely rebuild or see what they could get for Josh Howard package and give it one more shot (depending on the cir stances of course).
I'd like to get rid of Terry and Stack's contracts, but we'd have to give up Howard as well in order to get something back that is useful. We need a low-post scorer, and although I love Josh's game, it's easier to replace him than a low-post guy.
Findog, I know i over-exaggerated it's just im so sick and ing tired of dealing with all bull that is Mavericks. And i disagree with Dirk being a top 10 player, maybe top 25 but only if he's playing next to another superstar and doesn't have to be "the man." Bottom line is Mavs aren't getting it done with Dirk as the undisputed leader of this team and we need a go to superstar even if that means giving up the worlds biggest vagina. Our window is closing as Kidd gets older and Josh doesn't seem to be getting any better..
Josh Howard can get you guys something of value, a package around him might get a proven allstar 2nd option. To me, Howard is at best a 3rd option on a contending team. Great overall player, but cant take over games (seems non existant in crunchtime) or carry some of the load consistently.
This team is so the 2001 Lakers. Kobe sprains his ankle and soon after they get it going and win it all during a dramatic season. The same thing is set up for the Mavs. These guys are ing champions and they know it.
The time is coming. The big run is going to be here. It's starting Tuesday and it's not stopping until late June when these guys are celebrating the championship. Dirk telling Avery "we did it" and Howard laughing up a storm in the locker room with the trophy kissing and hugging it. JET and Stack having tears of joy calling each other champions. Cuban lighting up a cigar in his Dallas Maverick 2008 NBA championship shirt. And Dirk standing right there on the stage holding the 2008 Finals MVP in his hand saying "a few months ago everyone thought we were done but here we are your 2008 NBA Champions the Dallas Mavericks!"
I am going to be the ones to tell EVERYBODY here that I told you so. Unless Dirks season is finished, the Mavs are still winning the 2008 Championship. This team is toooooo good to miss the postseason. Once they get in and everybody is healthy, no one is stopping us from accomplishing our goal which is the 2008 le! Remember you heard it here first!![]()

Dirk is a top ten player easy. And he's not a "vagina." They don't come much tougher physically than Dirk. He plays on two permanently sprained ankles, he isn't afraid of contact, and he's willing to take the last shot for his team. He's done everything Avery has asked of him. He is the least of this team's problems.
I suppose an argument could be made that he's a "choker," since a choker is anybody who doesn't win 100% of his games, hits less than 100% from the field in the fourth quarter and hasn't won multiple championships, but the last thing I would do is question his heart, his toughness or his compe iveness.
I'm frustrated too, but it is what it is. It doesn't seem fair compared to the luck and fortune that other franchises have, but fair aint got nothing to do with it.
You have to give something to get something, and Josh is easily our most tradeable commodity, since he's young and his contract is pretty reasonable.
trade barry bonner damon finley jaque and horry for dirk?
Come on, I hope he is back in a game or two...no need to go into tank mode, there is not a player in the 14-20 range that will turn around a franchise.

If we get a lottery pick, 14 is the lowest we'd be. 11-14 is the range, and that could get a very serviceable player.
Marijuana Thread.
I believe he is top 5, with Lebron, Kobe, Duncan, and Paul.
