    Mavs are not the favorites or anything like that, but we now have a fighting chance. That's all you can ask for when the Spurs are still around and the Lakers get an all-star for nothing.
    Yeah, I think it will be a 3man race. It would be nice not to play both of them but I think a SA-Dallas 2nd round matchup is coming again.

    And as Mono said, 10 minutes for Flip can't be that bad. Maybe Kidd turns himo into productive as well. BB is staying home, and Cassell is going to Boston anyways.

    I was about to say " no" to Flip, but I guess for 10 minutes a game he's a better option than JJ or Eddie.
    Yeah, you're not getting blue chippers off the waiver wire in late February. Bottom line, he's better than those two spares.

    It's still to early to rule out Phoenix. They haven't looked good with Shaq so far, but you never know. Too soon to write them off.

    No, I'm pretty sure they are done.

    They weren't even contenders to begin with.

    You can't rule out any of the 8 playoff teams in the West. I thought Mav fans would have learned that by now judging from last season...

    Anyways, solid pickup on Magloire. Anyone know why he fell out of rotation on a bad Nets team?

    There is a difference between being able to win a playoff series with some luck, and being a championship contender.

    Golden State was fortunate to have beat Dallas, but everyone knew they weren't winning a le.

    Phoenix may be able to win a series, but they were never winning a le either.

    i thought nets believed him to be a key piece, so who knows...they signed him for $4 mil which isnt cheap. i wonder if it was discussed between the nets/mavs that magloire would be released and the mavs would sign him

    I'm not dismissing the Suns.

    Kidd says that Frank wanted to utilize a center to operate out of the high post, and Mags is more of a low-post player. Supposedly he's got an at ude problem and es when things don't go his way.

    yeah that's true, I hope the team knows better though. The fans can get carried away.

    There were two reasons for Magloire appearently. The wanted to try the young guys (Boone, Williams, Krstic now coming back) and appearently the coaching staff wanted high post guys, not low post like Magloire. He also was an FO signing, on which Lawrence Frank had not given his approval. Just a bad situation. But when he has played, he has played wel.

    That theory has been out there as well. The Mavs wanted a big man in return, but they couldn't make the numbers work so the Nets just said they were going to wave Mags since he was an expiring contract anyway.

    Yea, I had always had a feeling that it seemed like the Mavs would be smart enough to figure out some separate deal for a decent big man in this trade, and I always had a feeling Magliore would end up in Dallas eventually.

    Source: Magloire a done deal
    Center Jamaal Magloire, released by the Nets on Friday, will sign with the Mavericks when he clears waivers later this evening, according to a league source.

    The source was unsure of Brent Barry's intentions once he becomes a free agent later today. Barry, traded from San Antonio to Seattle last week and subsequently cut by the Sonics, is considering the Spurs, Suns, Mavs and Rockets. Reports earlier today suggested the 3-point specialist was leaning toward the Suns.

    Magloire, 6-11, 265, played in just 24 games for the Nets, averaging 1.8 points and 3.4 rebounds. Since becoming a surprise All-Star in 2003-04 when averaged 13.6 points and 10.4 rebounds with New Orleans, he's bounced around to Milwaukee, Portland and New Jersey.

    He'll rejoin former Nets teammates Jason Kidd, Malik Allen and Antoine Wright with the Mavs. Magloire, 29, could be a valuable piece backing up starter Erick Dampier in the compe ive Western Conference. The Mavs sent DeSagana Diop to the Nets as part of the blockbuster trade.

    Magloire will sign a one-year deal for the veteran's minimum.

    The Mavs will have one more open roster spot on the 15-man roster.

    The Mavs play at San Antonio on Thursday and return home on Friday to face Sacramento.

    I know a lot of Mavs fans want Magloire, but does he really have anything left? I know there aren't a lot of options right now, so I guess he's better than nothing.
    Gotta be a reason why 3 teams have given up on him. Guess Mavs will get him cheap though.
