    Is Eddie Sefko a real sports writer or some middle school Mavs fan that got a chance to write a blurb for the DMN?

    I wonder if the Mavs would do this trade.

    Mavs Get: Lebron James and Dwight Howard
    Magic Get: Dampier and Beaubois
    Cavs Get: Jason Terry, Tim Thomas and Matt Carroll

    http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMa...radeId=yj3sx4e
    Beaubois is untouchable, Cuban has said that already. No deal. Maybe if you get Denver involved and the Mavs also get Carmelo/Billups out of it.

    People laugh but I could see Lebron coming to a big market like Dallas to play for an owner like Cuban if we had major capspace to sign him, but that's the problem, we don't. @ the thought of the Cavs giving him up in a sign and trade.
    the Cavs' owner is no different than Cuban other than he doesn't get fined

    Sefko took the complete wrong stance when writing this. There's a better angle he should have taken.

    And Cuban didn't have a miracle fall into his lap after tanking.

    I don't believe he's exactly like Cuban in his willingness to do whatever to win, but anyway regardless, Cleveland isn't a big market or a fun place to live for a multimillionaire celebrity, which is what Lebron is aspiring to be.

    Why not? Dallas clubs are hot, nightlife is pretty great. We've got the Mavs, Cowboys, best stadium in the world, billionaire owner willing to win, etc. What exactly is there in Cleveland to offer Lebron, besides the sentimental value of playing in his home state?

    Funny how several Mavs fans seem not to understand why the article is absurd or at least they post as if it was somehow defensible idea. Or is that a given and the comments are entirely sarcastic?

    I hope that you're not talking about me, I've already stated that the article is re ed. We don't have the cap space to sign Lebron.

    I'm saying that if we had tons of cap space right now, Lebron would at least consider coming to Dallas. It's a big market.

    Dallas isn't worth screwing over your home state. New York maybe, but Dallas isn't

    If you think that loyalty is the reason he wouldn't come to Dallas, then that's understandable. I can agree with that, you should have just stated that from the beginning. I don't follow Lebron enough to know him to a T, right down to his loyalties and etc. My point was that it would at least be an option, although I'm not sure how hard he'd consider it.

    dumbass this is just Sefko trying to draw hits to his ty ass blog. He wrote last year that the Mavs could trade for cp3 over the summer. This is just his usual routine.

    We just have to move half of the homegames in the Cowboys stadium and James can wank off there in front of 100000 screaming kiddies.

    He should love it and force the S&T

    sons as much as I hate everything Dallas, I do respect Cuban. Now obviously nothing will happen until he opts out after this season, but if the price is right I think that Dallas would have a legit chance of bringing in Lebron. Dallas is a MUCH bigger market than Cleveland and they actually have a team that could compete right away. Unlike the Knicks or Nets who would take a couple of years to develop. Also, its not like Lebron would have to worry about not being the #1 guy on Dallas. who else would be the leader on the Mavs other than Lebron? seriously lol

    Actually if Nets did get Lebron(I'm not one of the many stupid people out in the world who cares where he goes) I think they would be a lot better and have a chance at win his first season with them depending what deals and players are here. We have Brook Lopez who I'd say is one of the best centers in the NBA and he is young and only getting better and Devin Harris(who I think would do better if he had a guy like Lebron doesn't have to be him just that type of player a better player to take teams off him) then others I really don't know who Nets will have or will trade over the summer, but I think they could be good if they had a player like Lebron, Wade, etc.

    The Mavs are so far over the cap (and the cap will probably be reduced next year) that even if Dirk took the vet minimum and they cut Dampier they'd still be right up against it (I think). They certainly couldn't offer LeBron a max contract or anything near it.

    Maybe if you can express to James how much Cuban wants him there (almost as much as Dirk and 36-year-old Jason Kidd) he'll be so impressed he'll sign for the minimum. Otherwise, not likely.

    sigh...... Ok. Even though Lebron would never want to come to such an old team, if he DID it could easily happen. Lebron goes to the dumbass in charge of the Cavs, and says "I want to go to the Big D, got. Trade me." Cle does this so they can actually get something back for Lebron, instead of losing him for nothing. They then work out a sign and trade where Dallas trades the Dust chip + Roddy (or Caron or whatever) for Lebron. Then Damps contract turns into dust, meaning they dont have to pay a dime for him. So they get to have Roddy to rebuild around whether than lose Lebron for absolutely nothing.
