Nope, Toronto would not want to take back salary. This is about getting rid of an unhappy player who was doublecrossed on a deal and saving some cash in the process.
Ummm no...there will be no JHo or Damp in the deal. Nice try though
It's only Stackhouse and possibly cash. Nothing else is needed when Stack's chip is worth $7 million+.
And as far as Marion's nuts go, he'll be fine. The rest of the Mavs roster doesn't fear the Spurs.
Why would it be a big deal if Damp leaves but they get Gortat?
Kinda like what the Spurs as a team do when they see the Mavs walk onto the court.
Shawn Marion comes to Dallas, Dirk and the rest of the crew take him aside when we play SA, they say "Look. I know what they did to you in Phoenix, but this team is our so just play your game."
Problem solved.
Gerald motha in Green!?
Based on how J-Ho works, I could see Marion all the sudden becoming a Spurs killer
Thats cool that you talk when your team beat the Spurs when they werent even at full strength. You're such a bad ass.
maybe. except josh howard isn't a SG, he's a SF. and Dirk isn't a PF he's a SF. they'll have a winning year but do you think they'll seriously contend for a championship? that's the ultimate goal, cause if you dont get that nothing else means anything.Josh can definitely play SG. His playing style fits the SG position well. He likes having the ball, he can handle it and bring it up the court, and he can score. In his first couple years he played a fair amount at the SG position as well. I like the idea of Josh playing SG and Marion at SF. Gives you two long athletic wings to run with Jason Kidd and to switch between on guys like Kobe and Bron. And Marion is a very good rebounder on both ends, still plays decent defense, hits open threes, and finishes well at the rim. Kidd throwing alley-oops to Marion =
PG - Kidd, Barea
SG - Howard, Terry or Wright
SF - Marion, George or Wright
PF - Nowitzki, Bass (if they keep him which i think they will)
C - Gortat, Dampier
pretty solid.
like i've repeatedly said, move Dirk to SF and consider this a rebuilding year.
Dirk isn't a SF.
Where the mother do you get the idea that Dirk should be a SF?
Over/Under for how long until Marion to start crying he doesn't get the ball enough?
It only took 3 pages to get into this once again.Thats cool that you talk when your team beat the Spurs when they werent even at full strength. You're such a bad ass.
Risky move IMHO. But if that's all you can get, I think it's better than standing pat.
Would be a nice move for the Mavericks.
The lack of consistent 3pt shooting from the swingmen wouldn't really matter (Howard is consistent against Spurs, no one else *sigh*) because Kidd is a nice spot up 3pt shooter now and you guys can get Dirk back out there knocking down 3's as well as Terry.
Depending on the center the Mavs can get, a Kidd/Howard/Marion/Dirk/Center with Terry as 6th man could be a nice unique line up. I like it, and I don't particularly like Marion, but it would be a definite improvement
You mean for the Stackhouse chip? He was going to be moved, and who knows - Marion may be the best thing going now or later. Some of the other names thrown about might just be pipedreams. There's only so much money out there and the talent pool is drying up. Teams are going to have to take what they can get and the Mavs could certainly do a whole lot worse than Marion at this point in time.
I still think they bring in Marquis Daniels and do what they can to re-up Bass.
With how great the Lakers are, is there anyone that is a contender except for them
No, because Marion can be a cancer. He's a me-first guy.
Then again, like I said, it's probably better than standing pat.
DB.com had written something about Marion this morning and threw out the possibility that Dallas wouldn't be the final destination, necessarily. They would be the facilitators in Marion going elsewhere and the Mavs still getting a nice piece in return. Eh, it could happen. But I agree - getting something (Marion) for essentially nothing (Stackhouse) is well worth the gamble.
I don't understand.
Is there a blue moon outside? You're actually giving us some props?
The Raptors are trying to cut down and make space for Hedo. Why would they want take back salaries just to give in to the needs of the Mavs. I do not see it happening.
Maybe you should read up on it a little more. This time, focus really hard on the part about getting a 3rd team involved.
I'm curious as to who this Ross guy is that you keep talking about. I haven't seen anything about him coming to Dallas.
